Purple House Press has been one of our favorite publishers since we discovered them in 2018. Over the years, we have reviewed their books, suggested some we would love to see in print again, and collaborated on some projects. Along the way, we became friends with Jill and consider her to be, not only one of our favorite publishers, but also one of our favorite people.
When we began the Plumfield Moms podcast, we interviewed Jill as a matter of course. In that interview, however, she started telling stories. Stories we had never heard before about Leonard Kessler, Elizabeth Orton Jones, Virigina Kahl, Roger Bradfield, and so many others. We realized that we were delighting in something that had to be shared with others. And so, since the summer of 2022, we have been recording with Jill several times per month to capture the stories behind the stories. We are pleased to be able to share those with you here.
We will always be updating this list, so feel free to check back periodically.
You can find Purple House Press on Facebook, Instagram, and in the free Biblioguides Online Community.
