Meet Our authors
Wayfarer Books was founded on the belief that literature should be wild, fearless, and untethered from the mainstream. We publish poetry and nonfiction that challenges, disrupts, and reimagines a home for seekers, rebels, and truth-tellers.
Our titles are globally distributed through Ingram and available wherever books are sold in paperback, ebook and audiobook. Wholesale inquiries? You can find our books on iPage, offered with standard trade terms and lifetime returnability.

Wayfarer Books is based in the San Juan Mountains near Mesa Verde, on the lands of the Ancestral Pueblo, the Southern Ute, the Mountain Ute (the Weenuchiu), the Diné (Navajo), and the San Juan Souther Paiute Nations. We honor the generations of Indigenous communities who have lived in, stewarded, and maintained these lands for thousands of years. We recognize that this land was taken through colonization and displacement, and we acknowledge the ongoing presence and contributions of Indigenous peoples, past, and present. As a company rooted in stories and knowledge, we commit to listening, learning, and supporting Indigenous voices, sovereignty, and wealth redistribution.
