A Spark in Solitude

In 2021, Frith Hilton embarked on a transformative journey of solitude, embracing his newfound calling as a writer. During this period, a tense moment with his realtor shook him to his core. Having fallen behind on apartment payments, Frith faced the looming fear of eviction. In the quiet of the night, surrounded by an unfamiliar neighborhood, he imagined the chilling prospect of sleeping in the woods—a haunting thought that left an indelible mark on his creative soul.

From Fear to Inspiration

This moment of vulnerability inspired the title of Frith’s first poetic work, initially called Forest Collection I. The name reflected his profound respect for humanity’s triumph in carving civilization from the wild, untamed darkness of the forest. It was a tribute to the resilience that transforms chaos into a haven—a theme that resonates deeply in his writing. This experience became the cornerstone of his literary identity.

The Birth of Forest Crib Books

When the time came to establish an imprint for his growing body of work, Frith chose the name Forest Crib Books. Launched in 2024, the imprint serves as a poignant reminder of the fragility of security and the primal fear of the unknown that lies beyond the comforts of home. Though not yet registered or trademarked, Forest Crib Books is the heart of Frith Nightswan Publishers, the channel through which Frith publishes all his poetic collections.

A Legacy of Resilience

Forest Crib Books is more than an imprint; it’s a testament to Frith Hilton’s journey from fear to creative triumph. Each publication under this banner carries the spirit of overcoming adversity, inviting readers to find solace and inspiration in the written word. As Frith continues to expand his literary oeuvre, Forest Crib Books stands as a beacon of resilience, celebrating the human capacity to build beauty from the wild.
