Peaks Island Press

Peaks Island Press is no longer in operation. 

A post about the dedicated work Eugene Woodbury did as Peaks Island Press's owner and editor is below.

Kate Woodbury Thoughts on Peaks Island Press

Our culture often argues that unless one is an artist at the nationally acclaimed, billionaire level...well, what is the point? I have always found this perspective odd. All I have to do is look around and see local ballet companies putting on The Nutcracker, local bands performing in the park, local artists selling stuff in galleries and during fairs, local writers writing happily away.

From age 25 to my early forties, I published short stories in magazines. I then turned to novellas and started posting chapters on my blog. My oldest brother Eugene reached out and offered to publish my works through Peaks Island Press. In return, I edited and proofread a number of his works.  

I will always be grateful to him for that opportunity. 

Eugene not only handled the financial/bureaucratic side of Peaks Island Press: he edited works, prepared them for print, and designed covers. He also wrote and showcased blurbs on his website/blog of those works and their authors. 

Through Peaks Island Press--

Eugene published the following by Kate Woodbury: A Man of Few Words, Persuadable, Mr. B Speaks! plus The Roesia Chronicles and The Donna Howard series.

He published the following by Beth Woodbury Hart: Dunbar Woods. 

And he published his own works, including Tokyo South, The Path of Dreams, Serpent of Time, Fox & Wolf, Angel Falling Softly, and, most recently, translations of works by Ranpo Edogawa.

I hope to republish many of the above works. Publication will begin in 2026.
