Introducing Proudly Bound

After years of thinking, planning, and slowly building, Proudly Bound is finally live. It’s taken a long time to get here, and I’m excited (and honestly a little relieved) to finally share it.

This is a small, hands-on press based in Charlotte, NC, focused on creating editions that treat great stories with the attention they deserve. The books I make here aren’t mass-produced. The first edition is Frankenstein by Mary Shelley, and I’ll be opening pre-orders soon. It’s been a dream project, and I’ll share more in the next post about how it came together.

For now, I just want to say: welcome. Whether you’re a fellow collector, a fan of the story, or someone who just loves well-made books—thanks for being here.

More soon.
