Mission Statement / Editorial Focus
Deerbrook Editions is a literary small press publishing noteworthy and emerging authors in well-designed trade books. The press presents authors to you in quality paper back books. The design is clean and unique to each book. The press works with authors on book contents and covers, often using original art or photography from author or artist collections. You can purchase books on this site via PayPal using the payment method of your choice. You can view sample pages of several of the latest books at issuu.com/deerbrookeditions. Our mission is to provide literature that is relevant and stimulating, to advocate and support authors by giving them a wider audience, and to connect authors and artists with their community by offering readers a new experience through literature. We plow earnings back into books. Our garden is one of books. We plant seeds of intellect and harvest nourishment. If you value art and culture then you are in a likely place to find something fruitful for the eye and mind. Our three graces are reading, writing, and teaching.
