to write a
better future.
We are a hybrid publisher specializing in memoir, health and wellness, conscious leadership, and personal growth books that tell brave, transformative stories.
We work with purpose-driven authors to publish the stories others shy away from: mental health, addiction and recovery, trauma, grief, and health crises. If your story carries a stigma, you are in the right place. And if you lead with heart, at work and in life, so are you.
better future.
Every book we publish supports the Life to Paper Foundation, which places our authors' books in hospitals, palliative care centres, and mental health and addiction treatment programs across Canada.
Celebrating eleven years of Life to Paper
From one grandmother’s story to a shelf of books, a foundation, a bookshop and a festival.
Business books that go a little deeper. Naturally.
On our eleventh birthday, we are growing our leadership shelf. Books about how to lead better, treat people better, and build workplaces worth showing up to. Books that give young people the hope, and the map, to follow their passions and lead in their own way.
Our next leadership title will be announced soon.
Announcing soon
She wanted to hire a ghostwriter to tell her life story, and I offered to help her myself. Helping her tell it was grounding. Honest. Real. Somewhere in that work I found my purpose, and in 2015 Life to Paper was born.
Eleven years later, the mission has not changed. Neither has the way we work: one author at a time, with care.
Our authors describe it best: skilled guidance, genuine care, and a team by your side every step of the way. Hybrid publishing at Life to Paper is collaborative and nurturing, from the seed of an idea through editing, launch, and promotion. You are never handed off.

Life to Paper Foundation
Our commitment to giving back is woven into the mission. Every book sold becomes a catalyst for change, reaching hospitals, palliative care centres, and mental health and addiction treatment programs.
Most people I speak with aren't "ready." They just know there's something there.
If that's you, you're in the right place. Let's write a better future, together.
