Ashwood Press is an innovative publishing company that focuses on publishing and distributing books that are meaningful and impactful. We aim to change the industry—one author, one book, one word at a time.
We want to discover new writers and voices that are exceptionally talented and get those books on the must-read and bestselling lists in order to highlight new voices, introduce readers to new writers and fill the world with smart, unforgettable, moving and timeless stories.
We focus on the craft of books and the joy of reading and learning, Our publications are far from the mass produced, same books that readers are shown all the time. We pledge to provide readers with the most amazing experiences possible.

Thank you! Robert had a vision for his Avenging Angel series for scratchboard illustrations, which you can read more about on his website.
In short, Robert and we worked together to find the best scratchboard artists working today. You’ll see original illustrations on the cover as well as inside all of the Avenging Angel Detective Agency books. The illustrators are: for A Murder in Ashwood and Current of Darkness, Mark Summers (Rolling Stones and many other celebrated works) and for The Unsealing, Douglas Smith (Wicked and much more).
Robert’s author portrait and the official Avenging Angel Detective Agency® artwork are by Mark Summers.
We are pleased to share this art with Robert’s readers, and genuinely appreciate your interest!

We provide consulting services on a limited basis to help writers, distributors, booksellers and all those working to bring great works to light.
If you're interested, let us know. We can get acquainted and discuss our range of professional services currently. We will be expanding these services over the coming year.
Please note, for authors whose books we publish, we do not accept payment to publish their work. We are a traditional publisher in that sense, where we take on all costs to publish books and authors receive payment.
Since we can’t take on each and every talented author, and want to bring new voices to readers, we offer those authors standalone services to help them either package their works for publication through editing, design and promotion, or to help them understand their own publishing journey.
Wonderful! We have built an outstanding group of editors, designers, marketing and publicity, and other industry professionals, and are always thrilled to meet new contacts who have the highest attention to quality, a demonstrated track record, and a positive can-do spirit. Contact us here.
We welcome the opportunity to meet you. Reach out here. We are expanding our press deliberately, so please recognize that while we love meeting new authors, our plan is to slowly add to our roster of authors to ensure the highest quality of production and most effective and widest marketing reach. We focus on quality first and foremost.
Our genre focus is historical fiction, literary fiction, mystery and thrillers, and romance.
We welcome the opportunity to discuss subrights and licensing opportunities, contact us here.
Many readers have told our authors they want to see movie versions, and our authors have a worldwide audience, so you’re in the right place.
Please contact us so that we can introduce ourselves to each other and ensure interest prior to submitting a sample of your manuscript. Ashwood Press is not able to consider unsolicited manuscript submissions. The publisher will have the right to destroy any unsolicited material or mail without returning to the sender.
