This press was co-founded by William Gough & Caren Moon.
PHP was created for Writers. They made their own decisions because Pilot Hill Press is a "Writers First" press.
A Psychotherapist, Caren Moon also works as a creator-writer of television & film, ranging from off-beat comedies to mysteries and dramas.
As well, she's developing series and a Movie for production in BC. Drawing on her Criminology background, she co-created "Outport Murders"
It was always a treat to see the arriving pages, and work with him to create these books to be carried around, read often, and emulated.
If you dream it - follow it. Look at where Kevin's curiosity and honesty with himself and his world did take him. If you don't have his books, we can provide them and the treat they'll bring to you.
As long as we all keep his stories in the world, Kevin will keep creating his yarns. That's why we love having readers, this is a relay race, and every book keeps running as long as it's still being read. Love how he saw and heard the world.
Thanks always Kevin!!!!

Pilot Hill Press samples the joy of exploring life. And the timing is perfect. We recall how wondrous was a world when we all could wander - even poets. We're sending this book into the world to remember what it was like when we could explore, and ramble. Well, Kevin Roberts did that - so he now helps us make a perfect choice for time travel, where...
...It's 1966 and Kevin Roberts is flying to the Village of Pouce Coupe a small town in Northern BC. He's got a teaching job - but what he doesn't realize is that he's also there to learn - and it's what he learns is what makes this book arrive for us in 2021.
.Our authors get to time travel and we all get to join them.
Pilot Hill Press is for writers & their power. I do not work as an ersatz filter. They're the writers & that's why each of them is the hub of a publishing wheel, and the wheel turns about the real hub of the world ..

Michael Kanaly's new Book - takes us into the disturbing vision of NEW EYES
A Powerful & Disturbing new novel from Michael Kanaly.
Criminal Minds meets Ancient Aliens in a chilling tale of murder and mayhem.
Acclaimed author, Michael Kanaly, in his latest novel, NEW EYES, looks into the heart of humanity…our past, present, and future…seeking answers to who and what we are.
NEW EYES is a page-turning, genuinely frightening book. Nobody writes serial killers like Michael Kanaly does.
Get ready for what he's doing in tuning his second edition.
In the 70's version of BC, a poet with long hair (and a tough attitude) decides to enter the Commercial Salmon Fishery & encounters some 'real' fishermen who assure him that his boat will sink the first time out...
I like keeping things in memory & so, remember what a treat it was to hear Kevin Roberts, with his sons Jon & Anthony reading from Flashers & Hoochies.
The combo was a delight - as is his book. Now here's a link from coverage of the launch.

Both Michael Kanaly, who lives in New York State, and Kevin Roberts, who came to Canada via Australia, reflect an international approach. They each bring their own world-view. This kind of publishing entity... has each writer at the hub of their own distinct wheel. PHP know that writers drive the Chariot.
Behind each of these books is a simple principle. The writers dream of whatever book they want to write. Each book needed the author's passion. This press is designed by writers for writers and readers. We need every single one of the readers of each book. Without the reader, there is no book.
PHP readers love the heft of a book; the way it fits in a pocket or a backpack. They all imagine the look of books on window ledges of small cabins; in high rise buildings, on buses, on subways. And we also love the pixels yarning & weaving stories thru a lit screen. May these books be carried around the world like lanterns - each holding a necessary spark.
