About CKAN Publishing
CKAN Publishing is committed to showcasing modern voices and unrecognised talent to the world. We specialize in publishing, rights management, and licensing, ensuring that authors, translators, and creative works reach a global audience. Our platform serves readers, theatres, cultural institutions, and industry professionals alike.
Translations
We support writers from smaller countries who want to sell their work globally, towards English speaking countries - U.K, USA, Australia etc., allowing your writing to be appreciated by a wider audience and generate a rewarding income and greater publicity. Our publishing house will translate your book, working with you for reviewing and accuracy, and allow the work to be sold digitally across popular platforms - such as Amazon!
