Purple Tuesday Press is an independent publisher located in Winnipeg, Manitoba,
specializing in poetry and children's books.


When Nicole Petroski’s first collection of poems, Out of Somewhere, was published in 2003
by the independent Winnipeg record label Tegancat Music, Nicole was involved in every aspect
of the book’s production, from writing and editing to layout and design. In 2007 she released
another independently published book, The Girl in the Moon. In 2008, Nicole started up her own
book publishing company, Purple Tuesday Press, and collaborated with artist Lynda Regan
to produce her first children’s book, The Very Lonely Sandwich.


"Nicole Petroski is a wonderful story teller . . . as well as writer! I have been showing
[The Very Lonely Sandwich] to family and friends. . . the consensus is that
this is a wonderful story . . . great writing with great illustrations . . . a double delight!"

~ Sophie Kolt, literacy advocate, Winnnipeg
