Who We Are
Building Connections, Inspiring Possibilities
P.U.S.H. Publishing Inc. was founded in August 2020 and stands for Pray Until Something Happens. Our name was given to us by the Late Altheia Ellice Smith-Parham, affectionately known to P.U.S.H. Publishing’s CEO as Niece Pooh. Altheia lost her fight with
Sarcoidosis: an incurable disease involving
abnormal collections of inflammatory cells. Just
weeks prior to her passing, she conversed with
Connie about spooling up advertisements for
P.U.S.H. and her belief in our mission.
OUR LATEST PROJECT
In March 2021, CEO of P.U.S.H. Publishing Inc. and Author of When the Bough Breaks, Connie D. Standifer, revealed in a blog to her subscribers that a new project in the making, and this time, it’s a children’s book entitled Mari And The Majestic Butterfly. She finished the rough sketches and went off to the illustrator. Connie’s very proud of this project in that everything associated with this book screams black girl magic, from the main character, the author, editor, and illustrator are women of color.
