Empress Editions is a proudly women-led, midlife-powered indie press built on a simple, radical belief: women over 40 are not just in their prime - they are the prime. We publish the bold, the brilliant, the irreverent, and the emotionally honest, and DIVORCE IS THE NEW BLACK: F*CK OFF, I'M COLORING MY WAY TO A NEW LIFE is the perfect embodiment of that mission.At the helm is Alisa Kennedy Jones, founder, publisher, and resident Nora-Ephron-in-combat-boots. A multihyphenate writer, creative director, and recovering perfectionist, Alisa leads Empress Editions with a mix of sharp humor, ferocious heart, and a laser-clear vision for a midlife women's media company that treats readers like the brilliant grownups they are. She's an architect of story, style, and strategy - the kind of publisher who will quote Joan Didion, fix your distribution plan, and hand you a cocktail - all before noon.Supporting the magic is a dream team of editors, designers, and creative collaborators who share a commitment to beauty, depth, and unfiltered truth-telling. Our editorial philosophy is equal parts compassion, precision, and "say the thing everyone else is afraid to say." Our design aesthetic? Smart. Elegant. A little mischievous. And always with the kind of attention to detail that makes readers feel held.For this book, the Empress team worked to develop 52 weeks of detailed, immersive, stress-melting coloring pages inspired by the emotional, logistical, and occasionally absurd realities of life after divorce. Every page blends hand-crafted artistic complexity with the kind of snarky empowerment women whisper to each other in bathrooms at weddings.Behind the scenes, our production and marketing team ensures each Empress title gets the kind of runway - and revelry - it deserves. From Amazon optimization to cinematic trailers to immersive A+ content, we build publishing experiences that feel luxe, intentional, and fiercely reader-centric.At Empress Editions, we don't just make books.We make companions.We make permission.We make new eras... possible.And this one - this riotously funny, beautifully illustrated, gloriously liberating coloring book - might be our most delicious act of midlife rebellion yet.
