UPCOMING RELEASE:
A Life in Parts
When Vicki Bennington and Daniel Brannan came to Stonebrook Publishing to pitch their book project, it didn't take much to convince us that they had a story that must be told. Vicki and Dan are both accomplished writers, and Dan is the Executive Editor of The Telegraph in Alton, IL. Several years ago, they met a local woman through a reporting opportunity, who transformed their entire outlook on life through her courage, her perseverance, her sense of humor, and her positive energy.
Loretta Goebel, a stay-at-home-mom of two young children, hit her hand against a stair bannister o
ne afternoon, and that innocuous injury eventually resulted in the amputation of both her legs, one of her hands, and the fingers on her remaining hand. Loretta's journey through her adjustment and recovery led her to a friendship with Heather Mills and Paul McCartney, who were instrumental in helping her find attractive prostheses.

"Publishing with a Purpose"Founded in 2010, Stonebrook Publishing is an author-friendly publishing company dedicated to bringing high-impact nonfiction works to the reading public. Unlike traditional publishing houses, we pursue a shared investment/shared reward model with our authors because we believe that authors deserve to be fairly compensated for their work.
Our published works have both commercial appeal and an intangible purpose behind them. While Stonebrook Publishing titles certainly attract a broad audience, they also offer a deeper value to the reader and, we hope, to society itself. Our authors often express a burning desire to communicate their experiences and knowledge with the public, not for their own vanity or strictly for financial rewards, but because they have a passion for something they must share as part of their life work.
Please browse our growing Library to view our titles and their intended purpose, and view our blog for news about upcoming releases.
