Bottom Dog Press, Inc.

We believe in a sense of place and person, in writing that reveals through its directness an essential human story. We also support the history and development of Working Class Literature and Appalachian Literature, and we work to provide outlets for that writing and information on that vital art.

We now have headquarters in Huron, Ohio, and in Bellingham, Washington and will be publishing books from both areas of the country.

Getting the Word Out

We've published 136 books in our 26 years,

connecting good writing with its audience.
