Publishers and
literary agents
Publishing houses sometimes find that authors get stuck.
When that happens, they may well call us.
Sometimes publishers sign a celebrity to a book contract,
but that person has no idea how to go about writing a book.
Again, we may get the call.
Alternatively, a publisher may ask us to repurpose an
existing book or manuscript for new uses. For example, they
may want an abridged version of an existing book to fit
into a series of publications focused on a particular
theme.
We work with literary agents in much the same way. In
addition, we sometimes work with agents to shape book
proposals.
We have worked with publishers and literary agents in
Boston, New York, New Jersey, Washington D.C., and Chicago
on a variety of projects. Most of our friends in and around
the publishing world are repeat clients.
Our contacts in the publishing industry are often helpful
to our individual
clients, as well.
McGraw-Hill commissioned us to write a book on Apple, and
then got the book published in five languages, including
(most recently) Vietnamese.
