Since 2018

I didn't set out to start a press. I set out to leave my desk.

What began with one person, one book, and a very different life has grown into a small press for fiction, nonfiction, children's books, and journals — built by people who still believe some stories are worth holding in your hands.

We organize our collections into four categories.
