About the press

Belonging Ground Press is an independent, Indigenous-owned Canadian publisher built on the belief that stories can deepen our understanding of ourselves, one another, and the places and experiences that shape us.

Mi'kmaq author Paula Sevestre named the press to celebrate the people, places, relationships, and experiences that bring us together in a divided world.

Beginning with Sevestre's fiction and non-fiction and expanding over time to include other authors, Belonging Ground Press contributes to a growing Indigenous presence on the Canadian publishing landscape.

"To celebrate the people, places, relationships, and experiences that bring us together in a divided world."

— Paula Sevestre, founder
