Discover Untold Stories That Challenge, Inspire, and Transform

Welcome to Bumbershoot Press, where storytelling uncovers the hidden narratives that shape our lives.

I’m Douglas Bell, an author dedicated to exploring identity, love, and self-acceptance through fiction that dares to ask the hard questions. My novels, Cakewalk and Love Cake, bring to light the untold stories of relationships, cultural divides, and personal growth—all set against the rich backdrop of Houston, Texas.

Have you ever wrestled with who you are—or who the world expects you to be? My books are for those who crave stories that reflect the messy, beautiful, and sometimes painful journey of becoming.
