We’re telling stories from the West Coast

Betcha you have a few in you

Welcome to your new favorite publishing house born in the West. We were searching for more stories from states and terrains we recognized. Stories that felt like home. Stories that felt like wild art. When we couldn’t find them, we built them a beautiful home where they could live together.

Our West Press is that place. Come on in—the coffee’s hot and there’s always room at our table for one more. 

latest release

A Wave Called Grief

Follow a faceless woman as she navigates the waves of grief that hit her throughout the day. This booklet—more than a card and less than a how-to guide—will give those who are grieving hope and tools to know they are not alone. What people are saying: "I received mine last week. It was exactly what I needed and helped me feel comfortable riding the waves of grief. Thank you!" "Lost my dad 18 years ago. This still resonates as I read it today." "It's beautiful, Whitney. You've always been such a talented writer, but this is really something special."
