Our Story

Road Clothes Press got its name from a story: a sweater tossed out the window of a moving car is found by a young woman . . . and she discovers it's more than just an abandoned article of clothing. The books we publish have a similar vibe—they are found treasures we hope you will cherish.
Our boutique literary publishing house is dedicated to discovering exceptional writers, and our passion for literature and commitment to quality storytelling drive everything we do. We take pride in providing a platform for emerging voices and connecting them with readers who appreciate the art of storytelling. Our journey began with a vision to create a space where unique narratives thrive, and we continue to set ourselves apart by nurturing creativity and delivering compelling literary works.
Road Clothes Press is the dedicated literary imprint of author Jo Taylor
We publish lyrical Southern fiction, poetry, and short stories that meet the top-notch standards of legacy publishing — from cover design to editorial — with the intimacy and intention of an independent press. We are not open to unsolicited submissions at this time.
