Shepard Publications is a U.S. publisher of books by Aaron Shepard, Mark Shepard, and Anne L. Watson. Imprints include Skyhook Press, Simple Productions, Shepard & Piper, Next River Books, and Islander Images. We are author-owned and -operated, and proud of it! (But if you’re with a bookseller or library, don’t worry, because you can easily get most of our books through major suppliers.) We are located in Bellingham, Washington.

We thrive with limited resources and personnel by exploiting opportunities provided by print on demand, ebooks, and online commerce. Unfortunately, this means we do not have the means to offer all the services and terms considered standard in the book trade. We’re sorry for any inconvenience or frustration this might cause.
