Our Environmental Responsibility

Homebound holds a fervor for environmen-tal conservation. Atop donating a percent-age of our annual income to an ecological charity, we are ever-mindful of our “carbon footprint”. Our books are printed on paper with chain of custody certification from the Forest Stewardship Council, Sustainable Forestry Initiative, and the Programme for the Endorsement of Forest Certification. This ensures that, in every step of the pro-cess, from the tree to the reader’s hands, that the paper our books are printed on has come from sustainably managed forests.

Our Mission

It is the intention of those at Homebound to revive contemplative storytelling and intro-duce a new mythology that will directly aid mankind in the trials we face at present. The stories humanity lives by give both context and perspective to our lives. Some old sto-ries, while well-known to the generations, no longer resonate with the heart of the modern man or address the dilemmas we currently face as individuals and as a global village. Homebound chooses titles that bal-ance a reverence for the old wisdom; while at the same time presenting new perspec-tives by which to live.

Our Business Philosophy

So often in this age of commerce, entertain-ment supersedes growth; books of lesser integrity but higher marketability are cho-sen over those with much-needed truth but small audiences. Homebound focuses on the quality of the truth and insight present within an author’s writing over other consid-erations. We seek books written by soul-ori-ented individuals putting forth their works in an effort to restore depth, highlight truth, and improve the quality of living for their readers.

Fleeting moments of fierce clarity are had when the confusion clears and the gray numbness that hangs about our senses draws back, allowing us to see the world and ourselves with sharp relief. Follow author and New England native L.M. Browning in her wan-derings across the Northeast, from the solitude of her home along the shore of Connecticut, to the rushing city streets of Boston, to the tall-pine landscape of Arcadia Park in Rhode Island to the quiet edges of Walden Pond.

Second Expanded Paperback EditionISBN 978-1-938846-04-5List Price: $14.95 | 150 pp 6 x 9

“L.M. Browning’s powerful poetry embodies the archetypal spiri-tual journey of our times, from “confining doctrine,” through de-spair and doubt, into reverent reconnection with the mysteries of the blossoming world. Her impassioned words evoke our longing to unite with the Source that gave rise to the cosmos, the earth, and the depths of our hearts. This book is like holding the twilight in your hands: a luminous joining of the divine and the natural into a moment of sacred wonder!” —Drew Dellinger, author of Love Letter to the Milky Way

The Crucifixion a novel by Theodore Richards

First Trade Paperback EditionISBN 978-0-9835852-6-8 List Price $15.95 | 188 pp 5.5 x 8.5

“I was moved emotionally by The Crucifixion. …In today’s rapidly changing world, the ability of individuals, families, and communi-ties to live with hope and purpose is essential, but according to my observations, too rare. The characters demonstrate how ordinary people can live extraordinary lives that exude the power to trans-form those around them.” —WAYNE GUSTAFSON, author of Community of Promise

“James Powers’ Saving the Farm is local history as it should be writ-ten. Powers’ book is charmingly written, interestingly constructed and most informative. There is no better way to gain a full and detailed picture of life on the 19th century Connecticut farm than reading this fascinating book and paying a visit to the Dudley farm.”

—Christopher Collier, State Historian Emeritus

Tinker’s DamnPoems by David K. Leff

Release Date October 18 2013 | Ship Date October 1, 2013First Trade Paperback EditionISBN: 978-1-938846-15-1List Price: $16.95 | 100 pp 6 x 9

“The irony inherent in how David K. Leff titled his new collection of po-ems is that he actually does give so much more than “a tinker’s damn” about so many things. It’s a very welcome addition to Leff’s important previous environmental study volumes of prose and poetry. Tinker’s Damn is a satisfaction, a pleasure, a series of revealing river bends.”

—Dick Allen, Connecticut State Poet Laureate
