Neil Wilson Publishing
Neil Wilson Publishing is an award-winning independent concern based in Castle Douglas that publishes predominantly non-fiction with a Scottish flavour. We occasionally venture into Irish territory and our travel and outdoors publications are worldwide in nature.
NWP has been shortlisted for the Boardman-Tasker Award for mountain literature on several occasions with an outright win in 2004 with Trevor Braham’s When The Alps Cast Their Spell. The 11:9 fiction list was launched with SAC funding in 2000 and is still in print. NWP is not currently commissioning any more fiction.
Other award-winning writers with NWP are Donald Mackintosh, Catherine Brown, Jim Perrin, Roger Protz and Jim Murray.
