Lisa Greener - Green Cat Books
Since its inception in 2017, Green Cat Books, founded by fellow spoonie Lisa Greener, has enabled nearly 70 authors to achieve their aspirations, leading to the publication of over 120 books. We recognise the immense love and effort authors invest in their work, and we believe they deserve a break during the next phases of their publishing journey. That's why we take on the production responsibilities, allowing authors to concentrate on what they truly enjoy—whether that’s writing their next story, managing their other job, or simply resting and recovering.
Our catalogue spans a diverse array of genres, including children's literature, science fiction, romance, and poetry. In addition to traditional books, we produce and sell audiobooks and videobooks, and we have recently begun listing our audiobooks on Spotify and Audible. Not only do we manage the production of our authors’ works, but we also promote and sell their titles alongside those of other authors. Furthermore, we support small businesses by offering their book-related products for sale. If you share a passion for reading or writing, we are here to assist you. We even offer an affiliate programme that allows you to promote our books and earn a commission.

ideally working with startup or new businesses that are looking to create or improve those visuals to make that perfect first impression.
that new start up business I can help make waves within your industry get you noticed & help build traction in those early days, mature businesses we can delve deep in to the visuals to see if it's appealing to the right people whilst capturing your business. Away from the logo & brand I can also bring awareness to your business in a creative way supporting with your design needs. Over the nearly 30 years of designing I’ve pretty much turned my hand to everything that needs designing. So if you can think it, I can design it
