Sono NIS Press

In 2004, Sono Nis celebrates 36 years of publishing: 36 years, more than 300 titles, 300 authors, and a fabulous string of Canadian poetry and history prize nominations and awards including the Pat Lowther Memorial Award, Eaton's Book Prize, BC Book Prizes, Governor General Awards, Lieutenant Governor's Medal for History, CAA Award, BC History Prize and others. For more than three decades we have been devoted to all our wonderful, talented authors and committed to marrying strong content to high production values. We publish an average of six books a year and have approximately 130 titles in print. "Sono Nis" - from sono, Italian for "I am," and nis, Anglo-Saxon for "are not" - was the name of a strange character in the company's first book. Our areas of interest are Juvenile Fiction for ages 9 - 14 (NOT picture books or young adult fiction), Regional (British Columbian) History, Transportation History (Railway, Nautical, Aviation), Historical Biography, Pioneer Autobiography, and Women's Studies. We do not publish out-of-country authors. Sono Nis Press tries to respond to all submissions within three months of receipt.
