High Horse Press is an immersive audiobook publishing project dedicated to bringing classic literature back to life through compelling narration and high-quality audio production.
Founded by audiobook narrator and coach Cathi Colas, High Horse Press was created to reimagine how classic stories are experienced—moving beyond flat readings to something more engaging, atmospheric, and alive.
Each production is built around:
• Thoughtful, engaging narration
• A collaborative approach with both emerging and experienced narrators
• Carefully selected public-domain works that still resonate today
High Horse Press is both a creative studio and a collaborative space—where narrators can develop their craft while contributing to meaningful, publishable work, and where listeners can rediscover classic stories in a more immersive way.

Select a public-domain work (generally published prior to 1930) that you’re excited to bring to life.
Contact us with your book choice to confirm availability and discuss the project.
High Horse Press takes care of the backend—project setup, publishing preparation, and production guidance—so you can focus on performance.
You record your audiobook with the support and direction needed to meet professional standards. You are responsible for Post-Production.
Once complete, the audiobook is published under High Horse Press, and you receive a royalty share contract.
If you’re looking to build experience, expand your portfolio, or take on a new project in a collaborative environment, we’d love to hear from you.
