Pyrrhic Press + ASCAP

Commitment to Our Community

We’re excited to announce that Pyrrhic Press Publishing has joined the American Society of Composers, Authors, and Publishers (ASCAP)! This strategic step empowers us to expand our imprint across the publishing industry, enhancing the services we offer to our authors while staying true to our unwavering commitment to protect what matters most: our readers, our authors, and everyone in between.

What ASCAP Membership Means for Pyrrhic Press

Joining ASCAP isn’t just about expanding our reach; it’s about creating a stronger, more vibrant ecosystem for everyone involved with Pyrrhic Press. Here’s how ASCAP membership helps us make that vision a reality:

  • Enhanced Imprint & Reach in Publishing
    ASCAP provides us with a sophisticated system for collecting and distributing royalties, ensuring our authors are compensated when their works are performed publicly. This strengthens our ability to publish works that impact audiences on a broader scale, giving Pyrrhic Press a solid foothold across new platforms and media.

  • Expanded Service Offerings for Authors
    Through ASCAP, we’re now able to offer authors additional resources such as licensing support, royalty management, and industry advocacy. These tools allow us to better serve our authors, guiding them toward sustainable, successful careers in publishing while ensuring they retain full rights and protections.

  • Commitment to Protect What Matters
    By aligning with ASCAP, we’re joining forces with an organization dedicated to fair compensation and copyright protections for creatives. This aligns seamlessly with our mission to safeguard the creative rights of everyone within our community—from our readers to our authors and everyone in between.

Benefits for Our Authors & Writers

Our ASCAP membership provides more than logistical benefits; it opens doors for our authors and extends our support in ways that matter:

  • Fair & Secure Royalty Collection
    ASCAP’s structured royalty system ensures that authors receive compensation whenever their work is performed, whether live or digital, by dividing royalties between writer and publisher shares. This means our authors can confidently share their work, knowing it’s both protected and fairly valued.

  • Resources for Growth & Collaboration
    ASCAP offers access to exclusive workshops, events, and programs, fostering opportunities for authors to network, learn, and grow professionally. These resources not only help authors find new platforms and audiences but also reinforce their roles as valued members of the broader publishing community.

  • Educational & Legal Support
    With ASCAP membership, our authors have access to valuable resources about copyright, royalty distribution, and their rights as creators. This level of support helps our authors make informed decisions and protect their creative endeavors within the publishing world.

A Milestone for the Pyrrhic Press Community

Our partnership with ASCAP is a major step toward expanding Pyrrhic Press’s imprint while holding firm to our guiding principles: supporting our community and protecting what matters most. We’re proud to deepen our commitment to our readers, our authors, and the art of publishing itself.
