For creators

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, you are paid 40% of cover price for both digital and physical products on the translated product until the translation fees are repaid, after which they receive the usual rates mentioned above (work sold in the original language retains the usual rates). 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.

After contacting us, we will discuss with you to know all important information about your project. We will set up everything for you, and you don’t need to take care of anything! Your products will consistently be advertised on our social media platforms, and note that your product might be included in bundles and special site-wide sales.

For Digital products: Send us all required folders and files for us to set it up properly and allow customers to receive their item. If the file is too big, you can send them to us via a third party file sharing site such as Google Drive.

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 of the pricing for print. Take note that we can only make a minimum of 25 books at a time, so take this into consideration when asking for us to print for you (the most advantageous minimum amounts are 25 for softcovers and 100 for hardcovers)!

   
   For an additional small fee (5$ per spread), we can set up your document for you to ensure the best possible quality of print (color correction, small adjustments, bleed, and margins).

   
   Setting up a print run through us incurs a small fee of 50$ for the paperwork and setting up with the printer. Additional fees may apply depending on the scope of your project.

​​

We use Canadian printers for all types of physical products, usually located in Quebec if it is possible. You do not need to be distributed via our website to set up a print project.

​

Note that we reserve the right to refuse products that are explicitly homophobic, transphobic, bigoted, or containing any other type of hate speech. We will automatically refuse any project that includes Generative AI. Your game must be in a finished or near-finished state to be featured on our website.​

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.

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.
