Thistle and Rowan Press

Step into story-rich worlds where myth, folklore, history, and everyday life collide.

The Creative Forces

     Thistle & Rowan Press brings together distinct voices and different kinds of stories under one creative roof. Jay D Evans writes the Nechtan Cameron Chronicles, while RJ Holloway explores the American West and Sorcha MacLeod brings the ancient world of Scotland to life through Enchanted Echoes.

      Maria Kosmin is our homesteading voice. She brings practical recipes to life along with advice on growing your own vegetables and other, simple, ways to get back to the basics of living. She, her husband, and her children don't just talk about being self-sufficent, they live it.
