Prose Books is a small independent publisher. We publish nonfiction for people in the middle of a transition they didn’t plan for — a marriage ending, a body changing, a life that needs rebuilding from parts you didn’t choose.
Our books are written for adults who are tired of being talked down to.
Jess Langford writes The She Series — six books for women navigating midlife’s hardest and most hopeful transitions. Starting over, feeling too much, saying sorry too often, and the slow work of getting better.
Samantha Bax writes about food and practical health, mostly for women over forty and for readers in their sixties and beyond. Straightforward cooking, honest information, and no shame attached to any of it.
Alex Carter writes The Standalone Man — plainspoken field manuals for men over fifty who are starting again after divorce, loss, or the quiet realisation that the plan stopped working.
These are pen names, and we’d rather tell you that than let you wonder. Each one is a house imprint with its own readership, its own voice, and its own standards. None of our authors are doctors, therapists, lawyers or financial advisers, and every book says so plainly on the pages where it matters.
We don’t promise transformation on a schedule. We don’t sell supplements, courses, coaching or anything else on the back of a book. We don’t use clinical language we haven’t earned, and we tell you when a problem needs a professional rather than a paperback.
Every book here is available as an instant download — a PDF exactly as the book was designed, an EPUB for Kindle, Kobo, phone or tablet, and an online flipbook you can read in any browser. You get all formats with one purchase, your download stays in your account, and there’s no subscription or account required beyond a working email address.
If a book doesn’t do what you hoped, tell us within 90 days and we’ll refund you in full. No questions, no returns, and you keep the book.
