Paradise Press logo

Paradise Press is a British gay and lesbian publishing company, devoted to "fine writing by lesbians and gay men".

It is the imprint of GASPS (Gay Authors Self-Publishing Society), a publishing collective that produces a wide range of literature by lesbians and gay men. Authors submit their books to the collective; if the book is approved, the author can then join the collective and benefit from and contribute to Paradise Press services. Paradise Press was founded in 1999 and grew out of Gay Authors Workshop.

The majority of the Paradise Press output has been fiction and poetry, plus a small number of autobiographies. The non-fiction list is being extended to include Diverse Performances by David Haldane Lawrence and possibly Amiable Warriors by Peter Scott-Presland.
