Welcome to Penny Castle Press
Amongst our shelves you’ll find a growing collection of tales spun by authors of all backgrounds. May these pages be a place of rest and exploration.
We encourage you to look around, and see if there’s something you might like.
Books and stories are dreams given form,
anchored in reality so they can be shared and enjoyed.
Beyond those, storytellers wish, wonder, and hope that they will be able to find a home for their work. Penny Castle Press is one such place, where indie and underrepresented authors can tell fantastic stories to the readers who have been waiting for them.
Welcome home, dear readers and writers.

Authors
Nemo Dade had been hiding in the US, off the grid, as best as she could. They’d found her anyway.
Odd things begin happening to Nemo. Is someone trying to finish the job, or is she finally losing her mind?
When she went into the Orphanage and took the name “Soot Nightblade,” she hadn’t expected to become a spy for the Crown.
While Soot and her foster siblings may have made it back to the Orphanage, strife runs rampant, and the core of the Orphans’ network is still dying.
