Vision

Creating an opportunity for the finest writers and artists within our region and beyond is the most integral part of our vision. It is critical to understand one's community and the voice of its creativity. The culture of a community does not thrive without an audience to share it with. It is the interaction between the art and those who behold the art that conjures the experience necessary to sustain a healthy community.

Nine Point Publishing focuses on sustaining both the fine art of hand-crafted books and book design, as well as on setting a high standard for fine writing and art books. We see no limit to manifesting compelling artistic inspiration as tangible fine art. From hand-bound limited edition hardcovers to the classic broadside, from hot metal typecast letterpress printings to offset chapbooks, we aim to produce some of the finest independently published material available today.

Nine Point Publishing is a private publishing firm and subsidiary of EFG Books, LLC located in Bridgton, Maine. We publish a semi-annual literary magazine called Omphalos each June and December.
