About
Celestial Echo Press is a small press based in Elkins Park, Pennsylvania.
Dynamic. That’s what Gemini Wordsmiths, LLC, our parent company, strives for, to stay dynamic. In fact, we’re the dynamic duo, and we keep moving forward. So forward, that in May 2019 our editing company added a publishing company.
Our first two forays into publishing were anthologies. Again, moving forward, we began to publish OPB (as Ruth calls it – other people’s books!).
Our first author was George W. Young. All our publications can be found on the Catalog tab.
Celestial Echo Press is a hybrid press. For an explanation of what a hybrid press is/does, please see the Hybrid Publishing tab. We are always open for submissions. Please follow the guidelines, and be sure to review the Hybrid Publishing Process and Packages tabs, as well as the Submission Guidelines.

Drum roll please! Our incredible news is: We will release Joanne McLaughlin’s next novel, her third with us, in September 2026. Murder in Act One is another Mimi Jones mystery.
We nominated several stories from our anthologies for the Pushcart Prize. We’re sad no one won.
We are members of the IBPA, Independent Book Publishers Association. https://www.ibpa-online.org/
