ABOUT US

Pencil on Paper started in 2018 as a self-publishing imprint with the simple goal of putting our books out into the world. We’ve released four since then, with more on the way, and will add artistic projects to the roster as we continue to grow. This is our journey to living our best creative lives. We hope you’ll come along for the ride.

MEET OUR TEAM

A creative dynamic duo; this team can write, illustrate, dance, edit, and publish together!

SHANE KROETSCH

KALEIGH KANARY

Shane Kroetsch writes dark and introspective fiction. He builds projects out of old junk, paints sad little blanket ghosts, rides vintage bikes, and shakes his butt while the vinyl spins.
Kaleigh Kanary has loved creating since she was very young. You can often find her singing loudly to her cats, binging horror movies, drinking bottomless cups of coffee, and drawing spooky monsters.
What we're working on
  • A children’s book is in development.
  • New paranormal fiction series. Hope you like it spooky!
  • Keep watch for new handmade art & cards in our store.

WHAT MAKES US INTERESTING

Weird & Spooky

We love weird things, whether it's drawing them, writing about them, or talking about them!

YOUR SUPPORT MATTERS

We are a small Canadian business. Your purchase supports the creator that made it, no middle-man.

UNIQUE CREATIONS

Imagination shouldn't fit inside a neat box. We follow our inspiration wherever it leads, and that means products you won't find anywhere else.

LOCAL DELIVERY

Free no contact delivery available for Calgary and area. Please inquire for availability.
