Step Left Publishing
A new publishing
company based in Utah,
is seeking submissions of quality book-length fiction and nonfiction. Step Left
was formed by a group of professional women with varied backgrounds and a common vision.

Cheryl Dudley. And that is how Step Left approaches the business of publishing.
Step Left is committed
