As autumn settles in, there’s no better time to curl up with a new book. Here at Sea Crow, we've been busy crafting literary treasures for you. From exciting new releases to upcoming events, here’s the bird’s-eye view from the Crow’s Nest!
New releases we're crowing about!
1. Cottage For Sale: Must Be Moved by Kate Whouley
Before #housebeforespouse, before Tiny Houses were a thing, even before DIY’ers got hooked on HGTV, Kate Whouley bought a fixerupper three-room cottage on Cape Cod. Cottage For Sale, Captivating readers for almost two decades, the memoir Anna Quindlen called “a pitch-perfect description of both small-town life and personal anticipation” now includes a bonus chapter by the author that catches readers up on the cottage, Kate, and the current (just as bossy) Cat-in-Charge.
We can't wait for Christmas!
2. Christmas in Cranberry Harbor by Candace Hammond
When Boston journalist Lizzie Martin returns to her Cape Cod hometown for Christmas, she's faced with more than cocoa, cookies, and Santa arriving on a boat. Her ex-fiance, Jack, is also in town, her dad's newspaper is struggling, her town is losing all its young people to opportunities and more affordable housing off-Cape, and climate change is rapidly eroding the coastline. Can two people who haven't spoken to each other in three years find their way back to each other, work together to help change their town's future and in doing so perhaps change their own?
Ready for some adventure?
3. Distant Story Blue by Magdalena Louise Hirt
Sail alongside Magdalena and her family to lose yourself in post-apocalyptic survival, mountain-summiting thunder, moon-cratered wonderment, endless-ocean visions, heart-stealing waves, and the grabbing, giving wind that will harness you to words. Dare to share the courage that it takes to leave everything behind with a family in tow and find excitement in not knowing what comes next. It will make you grab a railing, think on promises, and want to live in the South Pacific.

Forthcoming Titles And Projects
As we chart our course into the future, we're excited to offer you a sneak peek into our upcoming titles and projects.
The Crossing Places Series
Reclaiming the Sacred Feminine in Today’s World
A first glimpse of the book cover for the first installment of the forthcoming series!
Madeleine F White, author, poet and co-creation pioneer, charts her life in verses that eviscerate, challenge, demand, comfort and amuse in equal measure. By sharing her own path from lost to found with her Horse, her Truth and her God to guide her, these poems become way markers for others seeking to reclaim the sacred power in their own lives.
Starting with The Horse And The Girl and continuing With Maiden Mother Crone, this extraordinary series offers a path of hope, healing and ultimately self-expression. Culminating in Maiden, Mother, Crone: The Anthology, it invites all those who find themselves responding to Madeleine’s work to use their own verse to open up opportunities for growth and self-discovery.
‘I’ll weave pixels into promises and shared words into prayers of hope,
and so transform this world of men to somewhere crones can fly again.’

What's With The Crows?
Sea Crow Press is named for a flock of five talkative crows you can find on the beach anywhere between Scudder Lane and Bone Hill Road in Barnstable Village on Cape Cod.
According to Norse legend, one-eyed Odin sent two crows out into the world so they could return and tell its stories. If you sit and listen to the sea crows in Barnstable as they fly and roost and chatter, it’s an easy legend to believe.
