Smriti Publishing House
A home for women's stories,
held with warmth and dignity.
Smriti Publishing House was founded with a simple, heartfelt purpose: to uplift the voices of women — especially first-time authors — and help them bring their stories into the world with confidence and dignity.
Created by Amita Paul in loving memory of her mother, Smriti Paul, the publishing house stands as a celebration of resilience, creativity, and the generations of women whose love nourished us, often quietly and always deeply.
A mother's legacy
Every book we publish carries a mother's love.
Steady, warm, and guiding — Smriti Publishing House is named in memory of Smriti Paul, whose love and quiet strength continue to inspire every page we help bring into the world.
Who we're here for
Smriti Publishing House is a nurturing space for women who are ready to share their stories — especially those doing it for the very first time. We walk with you, gently and steadily, from first draft to finished book.
Championing women writers
We focus on women's voices — their experiences, questions, joys, and struggles — held with care and presented with dignity.
Supporting debut authors
If this is your first book, you're in the right place. We guide you patiently through each step so you never feel lost or overwhelmed.
Centering culture, food & belonging
We're especially drawn to stories rooted in culture, food, identity, and belonging — narratives that feel like home, or the longing for it.
What you can expect with Smriti Publishing House
We see publishing not just as a process, but as a relationship built on trust, gentleness, and clarity. Our goal is to help you feel supported, respected, and proud of the book you bring into the world.
A nurturing, encouraging space
We know how vulnerable it can feel to share your work. We take time to listen, understand your vision, and support you with thoughtful, kind feedback.
Gentle guidance, clear structure
From shaping your manuscript to polishing your final draft, we'll walk you through the stages of editing, design, and production in a way that feels grounded and doable.
A process rooted in respect
Your story is yours. Our role is to hold it carefully, honour your voice, and offer our experience so that your book can reach the readers it's meant for.
At the heart of it all
Every book we help bring to life carries the legacy of a mother's love — steady, warm, and guiding.
In naming this publishing house after her mother, Smriti, Amita has created more than just a literary space — it's a living tribute to all the women whose quiet strength shaped us, whose stories were often left untold, and whose love made room for ours.
When you publish with Smriti, you're not just releasing a book. You're joining a lineage of women whose words matter.
Ready to take your first step into authorship?
Whether you're working on your first manuscript, holding a half-finished draft, or simply carrying an idea in your heart, we'd love to hear from you. There's no pressure, no rush — just a warm conversation about your story and how we might support it.
