Good company in a journey makes the way seem shorter.

At the Brille Petit Imprint, we believe there are sparks of light in all of us—a story to be told, a poem to be written, a message to be shared. Established as the creative fiction and nonfiction wing of Brilliant Creations Publishing, Brille Petit was born out of a desire to nurture fresh voices and bring meaningful, beautifully illustrated literature to readers.
We pride ourselves on being a welcoming home for debut Filipino authors. If you are new to the world of writing but have a story you are passionate about sharing, we invite you to submit your work. Our dedicated team of editors and creatives will partner with you every step of the way, guiding your manuscript from a raw spark into a published book.
Ready to share your work with the world? Explore our Submission Guidelines to learn more about our process and what we look for.
We all start from somewhere. We may be a fledgling imprint, but we are fueled by passionate writers, talented illustrators and zealous editors eager to come up with literary works that we hope will be able to reach a global audience.
Our Vision
Our vision is to bring Filipino-written works to a global audience. We want to introduce new Filipino authors and illustrators to a bigger stage, and hopefully introduce to the world our shared passion for creating stories.
Our Mission
Our mission is two-fold: to awaken in our readers, particularly the youth, a desire to read through literary works that inspire, connect, and entertain; and to bring to life stories that highlight our shared experiences as human beings.
