The Salt Between Us
By Mariam Chowdhury · Literary fiction · 2026
01. The Challenge
A debut literary novel that needed to hold its own beside established imprints — on a self-publishing budget and timeline.
02. The Typographic Approach
A quiet two-typeface system, generous margins, and carefully tuned leading that lets the prose set the pace; the cover built from the same typographic voice.
03. The Outcome
Sold through its first print run within four months of launch and earned prominent features in independent book reviews.
