A little about a little imprint

Valericain Press was founded in 2021 as a home for the publication of the books of Chris Towndrow.

Since 2012, Chris has published a dozen books in a variety of genres. You can find his website here.

In 2023 we published a compilation of Victorian poetry, which was collated and transcribed by Chris.

In 2024 we published the first book of Chrissie Harrison.

We continue to support indie authors, both online and in person, by offering experience and advice about book marketing, advertising, formatting, querying agents and other aspects within the challenging world of independent or self-publishing.

 

Valericain Press takes its name from a seaside town in northern France.

Buying books

Did you know that you can order from your local INDEPENDENT bookshop, supporting small business owners rather than… more well-known alternatives?

“Bookshop.org works to connect readers with independent booksellers all over the world.‍ We believe local bookstores are essential community hubs that foster culture, curiosity, and a love of reading, and we're committed to helping them thrive. Every purchase on the site financially supports independent bookstores. Our platform gives independent bookstores tools to compete online and financial support to help them maintain their presence in local communities.”
