Joggling Board Press is a full-service independent publishing company based in Summerville, South Carolina. Here, the making of a book is a collaborative process, melding the minds and talents of writers, editors, artists and designers.
Since its founding in 2003, Joggling Board Press has earned the accolades of heavyweights in the industry and garnered nearly 100 top national and international awards for its titles. We don’t produce many books per year, rather we focus our energies on making books that matter, books that will endure.
As a regional press, we produce non-fiction titles that capture the history, culture and spirit of the South. Occasionally, if the right manuscript comes our way, we publish fiction. Depending on the nature of the project, we may take a traditional publishing approach or we may undertake a partnership, sponsorship or other creative arrangement.
We are a teaching press, offering new, emerging and established writers in-depth editorial reviews, as well as line edit and proofreading services. Editorial mentorships are also available.
When we are able, we host unpaid interns and apprentices looking to gain real-world experience in publishing for school credit or job training.

DISTINGUISHED AWARD WINNERS
New Release!
Second Chronicles: The Irreverent Reverend Rides Again
Raise your eyebrows and brace yourself, the Irreverent Reverend is back! In this second volume of collected stories, Joe Baroody is your driver as he swerves and skids his way through life, dustups that will variably make you cringe and laugh at his very human knack for embracing the power of vulnerability. Readers will feel all the feels in the 22 pea-size stories that make up this collection. Read them in order or a random bite at a time but, by all means, hang on for a great ride! Joe Baroody, an ordained Baptist minister and a pastoral counselor, is an award-winning author with insights that defy gravity, flout convention and touch the humanity in us all.
CHARLESTON: The Antebellum Neighborhoods and Buildings
LIMITED EDITION
Meet the architects, artisans, builders and families who called Charleston home. Journey down cobblestone streets, beyond garden walls and wrought-iron gates to great houses, grand public buildings, tenements, row houses and parks. These are the gems that have endured the ravages of time, a city that today is home to more structures from the nation’s earliest days than any other in America.
Awards:
Winner, Independent Press Association, distinguished favorite
Winner, NYC Big Book Award, best reference book
Finalist, Foreword Review best reference book of the year
UNDERTONES: Gifts of a Southern Tide
LIMITED EDITION
This is a book soaked in salt. The seasons move through the pages, storms blow through it, and the tides rise and fall. Take a slow walk through those pages and you will see things: whelk, Spanish moss, cypress knees, a great blue heron, and the drama of salty creeks, estuaries, spartina. It is a world of movement where barnacles seethe, water pulses, shadows lengthen and nets are thrown.
Experience the world through the perceptive eyes of Nan Young Carey and Douglas Cutting.
