Biographical Info
About Me:
I am a writer, editor and actor living just north of the Golden Gate Bridge with my teacher/author wife and our soon-to-be-author daughters. And our apparently non-literary cat.
For the past decade, I've run a small independent publishing company, Stillpoint Digital Press. For many years, I served as managing editor of the Collected Works of Josep[h Campbell, including the third edition of The Hero with a Thousand Faces.
As an author, I have published my teen historical adventure novel series Seasons of the Sword:
Risuko: A Kunoichi Tale (Winter)
Bright Eyes: A Kunoichi Tale (Spring)
Kano: A Kunoichi Tale (Winter)
Murasaki (Autumn—Coming Soon)
About Stillpoint Digital Press:
When I started Stillpoint Digital Press, all that I intended to do was to take my own varied experience as a writer, an editor, and an ebook designer and offer a service that was both more professional and more personal than that offered by the ebook self-publishing "services": digital publishing with a human face.
From the beginning, that idea has resonated — and has brought me in directions that I never anticipated.
One of my first projects was a memoir by former merchant seaman Jack Beritzhoff. When I began outlining my plans to Jack, talking through the editorial process and discussing the benefits of publishing his autobiographical work in ebook form, the ninety-four-year old nodded, smiled, and said. That sounds great. But I also want to be able to hold my book.
Well, who was I to deny Jack? And so Stillpoint became, quite outside of my plans, a traditional print publisher. The launch party and book signing for Sail Away was one of the prouder moments of my career in publishing.
Similarly, when Linda Finch began talking with me about bringing out a new edition of The Seven Gods of Luck, and I had created the print and ebook editions, I realized that I wanted to add a read-aloud track. Well, we have professional recording facilities, so that was easy. Suddenly, I found that we were in the audiobook business as well.
Our aim is to be as responsive as we can for our clients and partners, creating truly fine editions, no matter what the medium.
So tell us: what can Stillpoint do for you?
