Rootstock Author Testimonials

“For writers who care about the quality of their finished book and want to be part of a carefully curated, respected list of publications, I highly recommend Rootstock Publishing.”

— Marjorie Nelson Matthews, author of The Red Wheelbarrow and Hawai'i Calls

“The novel is a much stronger book now than when I first sent it to you a year ago. The excellent work by the editors and designers has taken a raw work and turned it into a polished book. Rootstock is a publisher with integrity, standards, patience and kindness.”

— Michael Freed-Thall, author of Horodno Burning

“Rootstock Publishing was willing to sign an author who was debuting a novel well beyond his youth. My editor at Rootstock skillfully edited the manuscript and the entire team guided my book to publication with professionalism. ”

— William Mark Habeeb, author of Venice Beach

“My editor at Rootstock effectively reviewed individual poems and the volume as a whole (several times!). She offered the first really comprehensive feedback on much of my writing.”

— Scudder Parker, author of Safe as Lightning
