My name is Maria Illife-Wood, Ihave lived in the Coalville area for most of my life. When the pandemic hit, I wrote a social diary of the pandemic and published this through Amazon. As a result, people began to ask me for help to write and publishing their books and IW Press was born.

I write and publish books; mostly memoirs with key life messages or books that will help to change people's lives, often written by people in the "helping profession". I want to help people find more grace and ease in their lives, through writing and publishing books that can impact positively on mental health.
