-join us on the journey to make dreams into paperbacks-



Our Story

In 2017, Austie was juggling the demands of teaching high school English and raising a young family when she rediscovering her passion for writing. As she immersed herself in the Instagram poetry community, a transformative journey was blooming. Among her fellow writers, Austie found a sense of peace and belonging, reigniting her creative spirit.

In 2018, during a particularly difficult year, Austie decided to take a leap of faith; quitting her job as an English teacher and jumping into publishing with both feet!

A.B.Baird Publishing was born of a dream to help others achieve their dreams.

What Our Authors Say

The benifits of working with A.B Baird were numerous. The clarity of communication was stellar. Interactions felt both personal and professional. The editing process was awesome. And most importantly, this publishing company has an eye for poetry. It is important to be published alongside high quality poets. And that is what you get with A.B Baird.

Garrett Ashe - My Still Waters

I choose to work with A.B.Baird, because I believe in their message of writers supporting writers. I also believe in supporting indie, specifically family owned publishers.

I found A.B.Baird's approach to be very freeing, yet straightforward. They are fair in their review process, and are very open to looking at work that may be quirky, or off-the-mark a bit.
