For creators

Do you want us to distribute/publish your book or want us fulfill a crowdfunding project for you? That is possible! Please read all information on this page to get started and know everything there is to know! TTRPGs can vary wildly in sizes and scope, and the presented prices may vary. If the information you seek is not on this page, please contact us anyway. We also have knowledge on running Crowdfunding campaigns, editing books, and translation (FR-EN).

Use the "Contact Us" section or send an e-mail directly at wendigo.workshop.hr@gmail.com to get started.

Publishing and distributing with us

  • We wish to be a place where creators can freely display their work and receive proper compensation for their hard work. 

    • DIGITAL PRODUCTS: Creators featuring their digital products are paid 80% of cover price for PDF sales. 

    • PHYSICAL PRODUCTS: Creators featuring their physical products are paid 70% of cover price for physical sales. When we are low on stock, we will send you a message for a possible restock or print rerun. We bring all physical products to conventions, and creators receive 60% of cover price!

    You retain all rights to your products and intellectual property while it is featured on our website. We accept projects in any language, but it must be available in French as per Quebec law 96 (if it is not, we offer to translate it for you). If your book needs to be translated, different rates applies to the translated version. You do not need to be distributed via our website to set up a translation project.

    As a queer-owned business, we know it is difficult for marginalized creators to get out there and make ends meet. If you are a marginalized creator, please say so in your messages, as we may have special rates for you on some services.

  • For Digital products: Send us all required folders and files necessary for customers to receive their item. If the file is too big, you can send them to us via a third party file sharing site of your choice.

    For Physical products, you have two options:

    1. If you already have your own books and wish to send us a few copies, you may mail them to us at our address, which we will send you in a message following your interest.

    2. ​You wish to perform a print run and have us take care of it? Send us your file and we will send you an estimate. See the Printing section in the next column for more information.

  • We accept project pitches for publishing.

    We will take care of putting together a crowdfunding campaign to afford a print run, and oversee the logistics.

    Much like distribution, your project must be available in French (or be open for a translation) to be accepted.

    As a published project, you keep all rights to sell your project on your own site or store. You will receive the same royalties as any other distributed games (80% on digital products, 70% on physical).

  • Our preferred method for payments is Paypal transfer, which will be sent to you once a month, on the fourth Wednesday. It is important for you to send us your Paypal handle so we can send you your payments. You will receive a Receipt for royalties each time, which you will need for tax purposes.

    The Distributor (Wendigo Workshop) is responsible to send and exchange payments via Paypal (or other, chosen way) to The Creator (You), when required to do so. If The Distributor does not send the required royalty payments on the aforementioned date (fourth Wednesday of each month, or within 2 days of such date), The Distributor incurs a 1.5% interest fee, per day after the first unpaid one, which they must pay to The Creator. The Creator agrees to be fair on his end, and not lie upon unreceived payments or fees to voluntarily harm The Distributor.

    If you wish to set up another type of payment, please mention it in your e-mail! Canadian creators can be set-up with e-transfer.
