OUR MISSION

Hollis House’s mission is to be a safe haven for creatives and artists to tell their stories. We want to be the place where stories live - and thrive. We especially work to uplift those voices who have been underrepresented, silenced, or overlooked. More so, we strive to be a hub for entertainment that brings joy, thought, and conversation.

Policy on AI

Considering our mission in supporting a diverse array of artists, Hollis House is strictly against the use of AI-generated images and/or illustrations. While we understand the value of certain AI-technology, we draw the line at having technology replace human expression.

All Hollis House book covers will be, and have been, commissioned by illustrators, artists, and photographers. Some of our book covers have been stock images put together by cover designers. None have been AI-generated. And they never will be.

While we do not use AI for illustrations/images/art, we do however employ AI tools, such as generating reels from our podcast episodes. We carefully consider using AI for behind-the-scenes/marketing methods, but we will never use AI for creative or artistic expression.
