OUR PRESS

Signature Editions is a literary press with an eclectic list of quality fiction, non-fiction, poetry and drama. Originally named Nuage Editions, the press was formed in Montreal in 1986 as a 16-person publishing collective. One of the first desktop publishers, we put out two to four books a year for the next five years. For the past nine years, the press has operated as a sole proprietorship and has published six to seven titles a year. In 1997, after eleven years of operation in Montreal, the press moved to Winnipeg and in the year 2000 was renamed Signature Editions.
