Kindling Press is an artist collective and small-press publisher of comics, zines, and TTRPGS, founded by Sam Cheng (@kindlesparkk). We exist to champion queer/BIPOC emerging creators, collaborative art, and character-driven speculative fiction. Kindling Press is based on unceded Gadigal land (Sydney, Australia), but features queer/BIPOC diaspora contributors from all over the world (including Korea, Scotland, Canada, Macedonia, and Hungary.) Ultimately, we’re a group of friends who realised that in order to see ourselves in the kinds of stories and art we wanted in the world, we had to put it out there ourselves.

Kindling Press is just getting started, so this website is still under construction! If you would like to keep in touch, please do so via the links below:
