Welcome to
West Waterford Press

Independent Publisher & Media Producer

West Waterford Press is a new independent Irish book publisher and media producer. We will, in time, publish poetry, short story collections and perhaps even works of grand literature, but at the moment our efforts are concentrated on our novel imprint, Kilbrien Round, and we urge you to check out that website for exciting news of the first novel release. Kilbrien Round deals purely in entertainment; gripping, accessible, page-turning entertainment.


As the ‘novel imprint’, everything with Kilbrien Round's logo on it is a full-length fictional prose narrative. We value plots unfolded by the actions, thoughts and speech of the characters. We relish stories set locally, created by local authors, and written with a local audience in mind. The more local, the better (as is illustrated by our alliance with West Waterford Arts Group).


We believe new creative writing talent can be discovered in old places, and from young heads on old shoulders. Not all fresh talent is fresh-faced. But, above all, we want to work with storytellers writing in Ireland, about Ireland, for Ireland.
