At Purple Diamond Press, we believe that every great story deserves the opportunity to be told — and we’re committed to making publishing more accessible for authors.

 

That’s why we’re excited to announce that Purple Diamond Press now offers flexible payment options through Affirm.

 

This new option allows authors to split their publishing investment into manageable monthly payments, making the journey to becoming a published author more accessible than ever.

 

 

Making Publishing More Accessible

 

We understand that publishing a book is a meaningful investment. For many authors, the upfront cost can sometimes feel overwhelming — even when they are ready to move forward with their story.

 

By offering Affirm, we’re removing that barrier.

 

Now, eligible clients can choose to:

  • Split payments into monthly installments
  • Get quick and easy approval
  • Move forward without paying everything upfront
  • Still choose to pay in full if preferred

 

This flexibility allows authors to move forward with confidence and focus on what truly matters — bringing their stories to life.
