About Paladin Knight Publishing
Formerly owned as one of the many divisions of Paladin Knight Entertainment, LLC, Paladin Knight Publishing was originally created in 2001 to satisfy in-house printing needs. It evolved into a company dedicated to the recognition of artists and their work by catering to the publishing needs of up and coming as well as seasoned poets and writers. We offer them an outlet to fulfill their publishing dreams where none existed before. The first printing of "Little Boy Beat" in 2004 by award winning poet and writer, John Dorsey set the division in motion. "Vocal Techniques for the Aspiring Singer" and another reprint of "Little Boy Beat" followed in 2012, both which continue to sell to this day. In 2010, Paladin Knight Comics was formed to offer another medium of media to herald the world's newest up and coming medieval fantasy hero, The Paladin Knight. Experimenting in Mezzo-Fumetti, short teasers featuring "The Paladin Girls" were created in 2016. The ever successful “Recession in Neverland” by Timm Wherry is a hybrid of poetry and photography and was first printed in 2017. It’s already in it’s second printing. Sharon Spitz is a new discovery. As a student of voice and piano with Entertainment Entrepreneur Chris Lance, the topic of poetry came up. While cleaning her house, Sharon came upon a stack of poems she wrote during the Vietnam War. After reading them, Chris Lance saw the talent in her work and offered to publish them. More importantly, these poems are a primary source window into an era of politics, pain and love. Sharon agreed and is working on her second book. In 2019, plans for a music division were made. In 2020, despite COVID-19, Paladin Publishing became incorporated and continues to thrive. Independent poets, writers and illustrators are welcomed to submit manuscripts after calling our office first to discuss your project.

I want to be the channel that brings their works to the public.”
