Stories Are Only the Beginning
Luring Press is an independent story company building a growing library of original fiction, unforgettable characters, and expansive worlds to explore.
Books are the foundation. From there, we are expanding toward film, television, games, interactive narrative, and whatever form the right story demands next.
Powered by Original Worlds
Luring Press was founded on a simple principle:
A powerful story doesn’t have to end with The End.
It can become a series. A film. A game. An experience. An entire world people return to because something inside it calls them back.
That’s what we’re building: an independent home for ambitious stories—and the long-term creative foundation on which they can grow.
Our expanding catalogue crosses fantasy, romance, mystery, crime, science fiction, and literary fiction. Some stories are sweeping and strange. Some are intimate and human. Some contain monsters. Most contain at least one questionable decision.
All of them begin with the same commitment: create extraordinary stories people love to spend time in.
The Story So Far
Luring Press began with three writers, a collection of original manuscripts, and the stubborn conviction that we didn’t need to wait for permission to find our audiences.
So we published the books.
Then we published more.
Book by book, series by series, we began assembling something larger than a conventional catalogue: a library of original intellectual property, distinctive creative voices, and story worlds with the potential to live across formats.
Today, Luring Press publishes work by Jordan Trippeer, Sierra Prynne, and Frank Kattegat, spanning interconnected romantic fantasies, contemporary and dark romance, speculative fiction, mysteries, apocalyptic science fiction, literary fiction, and other stories that resist sitting politely inside a single box.
We may be a young company, but we aren’t planting at random. We know the World Tree we intend to grow—and book by book, branch by branch, it is already taking root.

What We’re Building
Publishing
Books remain the foundation of Luring Press.
They allow us to develop ambitious ideas, build direct relationships with readers, create durable intellectual property, and prove what a story can become without a gatekeeper barring the way first.
Creative Education & Story Strategy
We also share the knowledge being built inside the company.
Through workshops, intensives, and selected professional services, Luring Press helps writers and other creators strengthen story architecture, adapt work across formats, and think more strategically about the long-term potential of their intellectual property.
Film & Television
Luring Press is developing original work for the screen alongside the adaptation potential of its publishing catalogue.
Founder Jordan Trippeer is an experienced screenwriter whose produced work has been distributed on platforms including Netflix and Amazon. Her screenwriting has also received recognition from major industry fellowships and programs.
Games & Interactive Narrative
Some worlds are read. Others ask to be explored.
As Luring Press grows, games, interactive storytelling, and emerging narrative forms will become part of how we develop stories designed for immersion, discovery, and participation.
Why Independence Matters
Independence is baked into our design.
Remaining independent allows Luring Press to think beyond a single release cycle, protect the integrity and long-term value of its stories, and make decisions based on what a project could become—not simply what can be extracted from it immediately.
We believe creators should understand the value of what they make.
We believe intellectual property should be developed with intention.
We believe creative ambition and commercial intelligence belong in the same room.
And we believe ownership creates the freedom to build patiently, experiment intelligently, and pursue opportunities from a position of strength.
Luring Press is founder-led and committed to retaining long-term control of its original properties. We welcome partnerships, expertise, financing structures, licensing relationships, and other opportunities that meaningfully expand what our stories can do while preserving the independence that made them possible.
Meet the Founder
Jordan Trippeer
Founder, Author & Screenwriter
Jordan Trippeer founded Luring Press to create the kind of company she wanted her stories to grow inside: independent, ambitious, strategically patient, and expansive.
As a screenwriter, Jordan has written produced features and short films distributed on platforms including Netflix and Amazon. She has been a finalist for the Academy Nicholl Fellowship and Universal Emerging Writers Program and has participated in multiple industry fellowships and development labs.
As an author, she writes immersive fiction about fascinating, flawed people; unusual worlds; dark places; and the stubborn human impulse to find light inside them.
Through Luring Press, she is building an expanding library of original stories designed to live beyond a single book, medium, or genre.
Meet Our Creators
Sierra Prynne
Sierra Prynne writes emotionally charged romance across fantasy, paranormal, contemporary, thriller, and destination subgenres. Her work pairs high-concept worlds with complicated desires, earned happily-ever-afters, and characters willing to make a beautiful mess of things along the way.
Frank Kattegat
Frank Kattegat writes speculative fiction, mystery, crime, and science fiction driven by sharp ideas, dangerous questions, and deeply imperfect people facing situations for which humanity is spectacularly unprepared.
We Are Building the Company Our Stories Require
Not every part of that company exists yet.
Luring Press is not presenting a distant ambition as a finished achievement. We are building deliberately: creating the stories, developing the catalogue, strengthening our audience, expanding our capabilities, and pursuing each new format when the work and opportunity justify it.
What exists already is the foundation:
Original intellectual property. A growing body of published work. Screenwriting and production experience. New projects in development. And a long-term vision for what an independent story company can become.
The next chapters are being written now.
