A Farewell to Coastal West Publishing — and a Bold New Beginning
It is with a mixture of sadness and deep gratitude that we announce the official closure of Coastal West Publishing.
For years, Coastal West stood as a platform for voices that needed to be heard—stories that cut through silence, books that held truth in their pages. We are proud of every author we worked with and every story we helped bring to life.
But seasons change. And so do callings.
The team behind Coastal West will now be turning its focus toward the world of film—specifically, documentaries with purpose. We are moving into a space where we can continue doing what we’ve always done: shine a light on what matters. Only now, we’ll do it through moving images, voices, and real-time truth. Our mission remains the same—to expose, to inform, and to honour stories that challenge the status quo.
While the publishing chapter of Coastal is closing, we are not leaving anyone behind.
The Coastal West Publishing email remains active. If you are an author with an unfinished or unreleased project, please know: your work will still be honoured. We will be reaching out individually to finalize plans for your book's release through other channels that best serve your vision. If we haven’t contacted you yet, please don’t hesitate to reach out directly.
This is not the end. It’s a transformation.
And to all those who have stood with us—readers, writers, creators—we invite you to walk with us into this next chapter.
With respect, humility, and renewed passion,
The Coastal West Team
