What is Fowler Road Press?
Fowler Road Press began when I was asked by a local group to produce a book of photographs for them which they could sell as a fundraising tool. Not wanting to get involved with a full publishing company, Fowler Road Press was born to produce short-run books printed on full offset-litho presses. We have now produced seven books for other authors interested in getting their work into print as well.
My Work:
While the first books I produced were largely photographic in nature, my work has evolved to include text to broaden the story my subjects have to tell. The photographs are now enhanced with interviews with the people I document. I have had four books published by full time publishers, and have self-published seven books on my own. The books on this site with a price of $0.00 are either sold out or are available from other publishers through Amazon.com. For additional information on these or other titles, contact me at: [email protected].
