My commitment to my clients is to not only help them get good deals but to work with them on their marketing efforts, platform building, and sales activities.  I seek a true partnership with authors who want to work with me on platform building and marketing before, during, and after their book’s launch and lifetime. I love working with books that educate and inform as well as working with authors who have a unique voice. Most of my fiction projects are in the Sci-Fi, Speculative, Horror, and Fantasy genres. I also represent some Historical Fiction. Non-Fiction Books include Cookbooks, Advice Books, and Pop-Culture.
