Weathered Bell Press is an independent publisher of fiction and practical nonfiction. We take on few books and give them time.

Weathered Bell Press was founded in 2026 and operates from outside Chicago. Its first title is Declutter Without Guilt by Thomas A. Scherzinger, published August 2026. The founder’s own fiction follows: Any Who Ask, Book One of the LitRPG series Haven Rules, free on Royal Road now and coming to Kindle Unlimited in November 2026, and The Tell of the Tide, Book One of The Drowned Seat, with a date to be announced. The list will grow slowly and, in time, include other authors.

A weathered bell has been rung for years and still sounds. That is the promise behind the name: every title we release is one we intend to keep in print.
