Stories that shape the next generation.

The Weekend Scriptorium is a literary house publishing fiction and ideas at the intersection of African heritage and contemporary thought — for readers who take their books seriously.

“

A weekend is just enough time to meet a stranger, fall through a window, and come back changed.

The House

Crafted in Accra, written for the world.

We believe a book is a long, slow conversation between two minds — and that the best ones travel further than their authors. The Weekend Scriptorium is a literary publishing house dedicated to the craft of compelling narratives and the shaping of ideas that inspire and educate the next generation.

Founded in Accra, our list spans literary fiction, family sagas, technology and finance, leadership, and books for younger readers. More about the house →
