Homer has long been a hotbed of local talent in many fields. Many of the finest authors in the
State of Alaska have either lived in the Homer area, or currently reside in the Homer area.
We have tried our best to make sure that all local authors are included on this list,
however, unintentional omissions are possible. If you notice such an omission,
please send an email (homerbookstore@ak.net) alerting us to the error.
Thank you.

~ AUTOGRAPHED COPIES OF MANY OF THE BOOKS LISTED BELOW ARE AVAILABLE ~
Due to the popularity of local Author's books, combined with the limited availability of some authors (who often
travel much more frequently than the rest of us), it is problematic to keep signed copies of all local books in
stock at all times. Fortunately, authors are very accommodating about signing their books so we will
endeavor to acquire autographed books from them, for our customers.
