IGNITIVEIFY Magazine: Where Indie Authors Shine

​

Welcome to IGNITIVEIFY Magazine, a vibrant and dynamic quarterly publication dedicated to celebrating the lives and works of indie authors. Published by Rustic Barn Publishing, IGNITIVEIFY is more than just a magazine; it's a community, a platform, and a passion project born from a deep love of storytelling and a commitment to supporting independent voices.

​

Our journey began five years ago, though our roots in magazine design, building, and publishing stretch back to 2015. Over the years, we've cultivated a loyal readership, growing from a dedicated subscriber base to over 198,072 readers by 2025. This growth is a testament to our unwavering dedication to providing readers with beautiful, informative magazines filled with unforgettable short stories, articles, and author features that they crave. We understand the power of connection, and we strive to create a reading experience that resonates with our audience on a personal level.

​

The COVID-19 pandemic presented us with a unique challenge. To ensure the continued publication of IGNITIVEIFY, we adapted, transitioning to a primarily online format with a print-on-demand option through a trusted third-party company. This strategic shift allowed us to continue delivering high-quality content while navigating the changing landscape of the publishing industry. While we had to discontinue printing our five other magazines, this adaptation has allowed IGNITIVEIFY to thrive and reach a wider audience.

​

Today, IGNITIVEIFY offers a unique and valuable service: custom-designed, personalized magazines for authors, designers, and businesses. These magazines, printed in quantities ranging from 20 to 3,000 copies per issue, provide a powerful way for authors to connect with their readers on a more intimate level. Imagine having a beautifully designed magazine, tailored to your specific genre, that you can share at book signings, include in swag bags, or sell directly to your fans. This is the power of a personalized IGNITIVEIFY magazine.

​

We believe in making quality accessible. That's why we keep our advertising prices affordable, ensuring that indie authors can reach a broad audience without breaking the bank. For those who prefer the tactile experience of a physical magazine, we offer a premium printed version on 85# paper, giving it a book-like feel with vibrant, eye-catching colors throughout. These printed versions are available for purchase in our print-on-demand store, allowing readers to enjoy the magazine in a format they love.

IGNITIVEIFY is released quarterly, three times per year, providing a consistent stream of engaging content. Our primary focus is on showcasing indie authors who write and publish across a diverse range of genres. We delve into their lifestyles, explore their books, and feature their short stories, offering readers a glimpse into the creative minds behind the words. We also include numerous author interviews, allowing readers to connect with the authors on a deeper level, encouraging them to purchase their books and support the new or emerging talent they discover within our pages.

​

IGNITIVEIFY Magazine was brought to life by International Bestselling indie author Savannah McCann. Savannah envisioned a magazine that would primarily feature indie authors, although traditionally published authors are also welcome in each issue. We have featured several USA Today Best-Selling Authors and a few NYT Best Sellers; many of those are indie authors. Her goal is to help indie authors to reach as many readers as possible regardless of whether they are published by a well-known publisher, self-published, or just write short stories and poetry; it gives those writers a place to share their writing with a large audience. Savannah's passion for supporting indie authors is the driving force behind IGNITIVEIFY.

​

Savannah McCann is not only an accomplished author but also a dedicated professional with extensive experience in marketing, advertising, and graphic design. She pours her heart and soul into each issue, from cover to cover, ensuring that every page offers a fabulous reading experience. Her dedication to her clients is unwavering, and her commitment to quality is evident in every aspect of the magazine.

We are also proud to partner with Qovers by Red, a talented team of graphic designers who bring a diverse imagination to genre creation for book covers and book marketing materials. Their expertise enhances the visual appeal of our magazine and helps authors create stunning marketing materials.

​

IGNITIVEIFY Magazine is more than just a publication; it's a movement. It's a celebration of creativity, a platform for independent voices, and a community of passionate readers and writers. We invite you to join us on this exciting journey as we continue to champion the indie author community and bring the magic of storytelling to life.
