Per Bastet believes in a fair balance of responsibility and profitability between authors and house. We publish primarily speculative fiction, mystery and romance. Per Bastet Publications is interested in well-edited manuscripts by authors who are willing to cooperate, at their comfort level, with promotion and sales of their own work.
