Publishing the Unpublished Authors

HRBN (read as Haribon, pronounced as “ha-ree-buhn”) Publishing, also known as Haribon Publishing, is a contemporary, independent publishing house with a familial presence across Australia, Canada, Taiwan, and the Philippines. We publish a diverse range of narratives, from gripping fiction to insightful non-fiction, available in eBooks, paperbacks, and hardcovers.

Our mission at HRBN Publishing is to discover and nurture great stories crafted by talented artists, writers, and illustrators who have postponed their dreams of becoming published due to life's demands, from the daily grind of 9–5 jobs to family obligations. By combining the principles of traditional publishing with the efficiencies of modern technology, we are dedicated to bringing unique voices and stories to a global audience.

Operating with the HRBN brand name, HRBN Publishing is a registered publishing business under the name Haribon Publishing.

Why Our Authors Choose Us

HRBN Publishing is an author-centric, selective independent publishing house that uses a modern, hybrid distribution approach with traditional values (curation, free in-house editing and graphic designing, ISBNs, imprint control). Not a vanity press, HRBN genuinely cares for its authors by providing:

  • No author fees. We invest in editorial and design.

  • Your rights stay yours. We license; you own.

  • Global + local. Amazon for worldwide market; Shopee for PH and SEA readers with cost-effective shipping.

  • Professional metadata. ISBNs under the Haribon imprint for bookstore-grade legitimacy.

  • Transparent royalties. Clear channel-by-channel statements.

The Pioneer in Hybrid Publishing

Learn how HRBN Publishing compares with traditional and modern publishing houses.

  • Traditional — selective, advance + royalties, long lead-times.

  • Vanity/author-services — author pays fees to be published.

  • Haribon — selective curation without author fees, no advance, and with royalties from copy #1, ISBN + imprint, POD + local retail.

TLDR: HRBN (Haribon) Publishing is a selective independent publishing house: no author fees, no long queues—just careful curation, clean rights, and royalties from copy #1.
