About

Hello, and welcome!

I’m Paulette Ysasi, founder of ShiftMaven Press.

I believe books can spark curiosity, shift perspectives, and inspire people to take the next step. That’s why ShiftMaven Press publishes books for children, teens, and adults across picture books, illustrated chapter books, coloring books, fiction, and practical nonfiction.

We also help independent writers publish their own books through their KDP accounts, so they keep full ownership and control. It’s one of my favorite parts of this work ~ seeing an author’s idea become a finished book they’re proud to share.

Some writers need experienced support to navigate the publishing process. I help independent authors work through the details, make informed decisions, and move confidently from manuscript to a published book available for readers.

Because I keep this support personal, I work with a limited number of writers at a time and use a short request form to make sure it’s the right fit.
