What We're Building

A thoughtful home for every manuscript.

We are building a thoughtful home for authors who want more than a printed book. Forty-Sixth Storyworks exists to help shape meaningful manuscripts into carefully edited, beautifully designed, and strategically supported titles.

We believe the process should feel personal without losing professionalism. It should honor the author's voice while giving every book the structure, polish, and visibility it deserves.

Our Commitment

Our Founding Promise

Treat every manuscript as someone's meaningful work, not just another file in a queue.

Champion stories that carry honesty, heart, and a clear reason to exist.

Build books with care, from editorial development to design, distribution, and reader outreach.

Stay rooted in home while helping stories travel far beyond where they began.

Choose intention over noise, quality over shortcuts, and people over volume.

Submissions Open

Now Accepting Submissions

Now accepting submissions from authors with stories ready to find their home. We welcome manuscripts with heart, purpose, and a strong sense of voice.

Whether your story begins in Oklahoma or anywhere meaningful — we are looking for books that carry truth, imagination, and the power to connect with readers.




    Something meaningful is taking shape.

    Forty-Sixth Storyworks is preparing to open its doors to authors, readers, and stories with roots and wings. Stay close as we build a home grounded in care, craft, and the belief that good stories can begin anywhere and belong everywhere.

    Who We Are

    About Us

    Forty-Sixth Storyworks is an Oklahoma-based company built on the belief that every story deserves a place to feel at home.

    Our name honors Oklahoma's place as the 46th state — but it means more than geography. It speaks to origin, belonging, and the quiet power of coming from somewhere.

    Rooted in "OklaHOMEa," we carry the warmth of home into every book we help bring into the world. We are drawn to stories shaped by place, identity, memory, faith, imagination, and personal truth.

    Oklahoma is our foundation, but the stories are never confined by it. This is a home for voices with roots, wings, and the courage to reach readers anywhere.
