About Us
The headquarters of Castle Sefton Press are in this small study in Stoke-on-Trent, although publisher Emily Tellwright likes to work in the garden when the weather is good enough. You can see we have plenty of books!
Emily Tellwright
Emily is the official owner of Castle Sefton Press. As well as being an author and artist, she manages the business and the website. Also, she’s the person you will see on our social media channels. Articles on our blog are mostly written by her too.
You can find out more about Emily on her own site. This hosts her personal blog, where she shares thoughts, ideas and events.
John Blake
JB is an author and artist at Castle Sefton Press. He’s not directly involved in running the publishing business or the website, as he doesn’t enjoy working with figures or computers very much. Still, he does contribute artwork for the website and ideas for the articles, as well as editing (and approving!) them.
He also makes very good coffee for busy publishers.
One thing that JB does not like to contribute is information about himself. He’s always preferred to let his art and writing speak for themselves. But we have managed to extract a few details so you can find out more about JB.
About Our Books
Castle Sefton Press publications all have a few things in common.
- Adult Fiction. We only publish fictional works for adults.
- Entertaining. We want our books to be enjoyable reading. They have inventive plots and are often humorous, but not cosy.
- Literary. We like good use of language and well-structured stories with more than trivial significance. It is our belief that this does not mean books need be difficult, elitist or depressing.
- All our books are available in paperback and ebook.
- We contract the services of the best editors and proofreaders, ensuring our publications are of the highest standard.
- Design work, typesetting, marketing and promotion is done in-house, ensuring that we deliver a unique product to our readers. Authors do their own cover art as part of a complete creative experience.
