Independent publisher
Practical books, written plainly.
Marlin & Quill publishes practical nonfiction. The list is short on purpose. Each book is written for a specific reader and a specific tool — the software on the screen, or the appliance in the kitchen.
Our books are for everyone.

Trevor Soren
Educator and author
Trevor writes for people who did not ask for a career in technology. His books take ChatGPT and other assistants out of the abstract and put them to work: staying in touch, planning a holiday, or learning to prompt with examples you can use the same day.
Author · The kitchen
Reid Lund
Culinary consultant · Portland, Oregon
Reid writes cookbooks for equipment most recipe writers treat as an afterthought. A Miele steam oven is not a conventional oven. A Yoder YS480 is not a generic pellet grill. A smaller appetite is not a standard meal plan. His books name the setting, the mode, and the portion.
