Atiswinic Press

About Us


Ojai, Calif.-based Atiswinic Press specializes in the publication of nature and family books. Founded in 2011, the company's name comes from the Chumash word that translates literally as "dreamer" or "having a dream." The Chumash were the first human inhabitants of Ojai (the city's name also comes from the Chumash language) - and the company's owner always has dreamed of living in Ojai and writing/publishing books that he enjoyed most. The company and its location are the fulfillment of his dream or vision. Hikes with Tykes is the press' first publication. Several more family-oriented nature books are planned for release in the months ahead. Atiswinic Press currently is not accepting submissions or pitches for book ideas.
