About us
An independent press that publishes underrepresented authors in fiction and nonfiction. Drawing on my experience as an award-winning author, an editor and educator, Pishukin Press is dedicated to accessibility and titles are published in ebooks, paperbacks, hardbacks, large print, dyslexic font and audiobooks narrated by artificial intelligence and performance narrators. I won the 2009 Melbourne Prize for Literature's Civic Choice Award for her debut novel The Good Daughter re-published as Sabiha’s Dilemma. The anthology I co-edited, Growing up Muslim in Australia (Allen and Unwin, 2014), was shortlisted for the 2015 Children's Book Council of the year awards and her memoir Things Nobody Knows But Me (Transit Lounge, 2019) was shortlisted for the 2020 National Biography Award. I am also the author of short story collection The Cuckoo’s Song, and young adult novels Sabiha’s Dilemma and Alma’s Loyalty (Pishukin Press, 2022). Read more about me on my website here. I have been traditionally published for over twenty years and am taking control of my publishing journey by becoming an independently published author. Book Formats There is a quote that states ‘If you don’t like to read, then you haven’t found the right book.’ I would like to extend that further and state that ‘If you struggle to read then you haven’t found the right book format.’ As a high school teacher I have taught students with various individual needs and recognise the need to make books accessible for all kinds of readers. To this end I am committed to publishing all Pishukin Press titles in as many formats as possible. This includes: Dyslexic Format Edition—printed in Dyslexic Open font in 14 point Large Print edition—printed in Large Print Open Sans No Italics font in 18 point font size Audiobooks AI—narrated by artificial intelligence using Google technology. Audiobooks—narrated by performance narrators are also in process. All books are also available in paperback and hardcover editions.

I received an order for a signed copy of my memoir Things Nobody Knows But Me through my shop. I love having these moments where I can send my book and thought I'd share the process. First I sign the book and emboss the imprint page. I'm so grateful to my hubby Fikret Pajalic for buying this gorgeous embossing stamp for my birthday. Then I add the matching bookmark for the memoir. I add extra bookmarks for my other books and my imprint Pishukin Press. I pack the book like a parcel using recycled paper and a brown string, add a gift card and then insert into a parcel post bag. I email the customer with the parcel post number and confirmation that I have posted the book. If you buy any of my paperbacks or audiobooks via my shop you get 20% off. Thank you to Alexandra for your support and for choosing my memoir as a gift for Ayisha. Also just a reminder, I narrated the audiobook myself. so if you're a lover of audiobooks, you get a special treat listening to me talk about me. 💪 Now available in 📱ebook, 📚paperback, and 🎧audiobook. 📚🎧All editions purchase links: https://lnkd.in/gzZcKZHW ✨Retail links: https://lnkd.in/gQTQpJUN #creativenonfiction #essaycollection #amwriting #writingmemoir #writingcommunity #writersofinstagram #essaycollection #bookstagram #bookstagrammer #bookish #bookishlove #memoirwriting #SharingMyStory #HealingJourney #bipolar
