In 2017, several authors expressed interest in writing stories for a theoretical “Pennyverse” (author Penny Reid’s Universe) in some capacity (whether that be writing a canon story about new characters within the Pennyverse, writing a continuation of a current couple’s story within the Pennyverse, writing a fanfic in an alternate timeline using Pennyverse characters, etc.) We collated the data we received, marinated in it, and created this collaborative business model.

Smartypants Romance is a small publisher that is indie-minded. It is a business whose mission is:

1) To be self-sustaining.

2) To be value added to: a) the authors and professionals (support personnel) who are published by/within/work for the SRU, b) the Penny Reid Brand, and c) the romance community and world at large.

3) To set an example of best practices, inclusion, representation, professionalism, mentorship, and craft-excellence.

4) To be drama free and efficient.
