Romance & relationships

At Whisper Éditions, we are interested in the many ways people meet, desire, misunderstand, choose, lose and sometimes find one another again. We look for writing about love and relationships that feels contemporary, emotionally intelligent and unmistakably personal.

Modern dating, intimacy, long-term relationships, separation, reinvention, friendship and desire all have a place here provided the writer brings a point of view rather than a formula. We are drawn to work that can be witty, romantic, irreverent or gently provocative, while remaining generous towards the people it observes.

We are not looking for rigid rules about how love should work. We are interested in the contradictions, small signals and unexpected moments through which human connection reveals itself.

Above all, we look for writers with warmth, curiosity and enough distance to see both the comedy and the vulnerability of being close to another person.
