About Broadwater Books

Broadwater Books is an independent publishing imprint based in Hertfordshire, founded by novelist and poet Paul Linggood. We publish fiction that looks closely at ordinary lives, finding humanity, compassion and hope in difficult places.

Our first release, The Boy on the Sofa, reflects that vision. As the imprint grows, we aim to champion distinctive voices and help emerging writers bring their stories to readers.
