About Bold Soul Books​

Where Stories Come Alive 

Bold Soul Books was born from the creative partnership between critically-acclaimed author E. Katherine Kottaras and multitalented storyteller B.T. Gottfred, our bookstore grew organically from their collaborative work on "Yoga with Eleonora" for PillowFort TV, where they discovered their shared passion for books that nurture both young minds and adventurous souls.

Our Mission

At Bold Soul Books, we aim to collaborate with indie writers, and in doing so, we hope to:

​

• Celebrate authentic voices from diverse backgrounds and experiences

• Amplify and uplift adventurous and creative voices

• Help bring to market books that invite new ways to connect and question

• Champion inclusive storytelling that makes space for all identities and experiences

​
