A literary agency for authors and publishers
Your book already exists. Now it has to travel.
Authors and publishers bring me a finished book. I take it to publishers, to rights buyers, to the press, to the international book fairs, and to film and theater. One agent, one address, the whole route.

Rights for sale
Books whose rights are open for sale, in every language.
Translation, publication, audio and adaptation rights, available to publishers and producers in any territory.
Commissioned work, and commission on what it earns.
Authors and publishers come to me and commission the work of taking a book to market. That work is agreed in writing before it starts. Where it produces a deal, an agent's commission applies.
You commission the work
Taking the book to market
Submission to publishers, rights outreach by territory, the international book fairs, press and publicity, editorial preparation, screen and stage. Deliverables and dates agreed in writing.
I earn on the result
Commission on deals
When the work produces a contract, a standard agent's commission applies: a publishing deal, a translation license, an audio edition, a film option, a stage adaptation.
What I will never do is promise an outcome. Publishers, festivals, journalists and producers make their own decisions. What I commit to is the work, the contacts, and an honest account of what happened.
What the agency does
Literary representation
Submission to publishers, contract negotiation and everything after.
International book fairs
Frankfurt, Bologna, London: your book pitched in the room.
Screen and stage
Adaptation, script polish and placement with producers.
Editorial development
Assessment, editing and proofreading of the manuscript.
Publicity and PR
Press kits, launch campaigns and media relations.
Rights and licensing
Translation, audio, film and co-edition licences.
International book fairs
The deals happen in the room.
Frankfurt, Bologna, London. Foreign rights are traded face to face, in half-hour meetings booked weeks in advance. Most authors and many small publishers are never there. I go, and I take your book with me.
Screen and stage
Some books want to be seen, not only read.
Adapting your book into a screenplay, or polishing the script you already have, and putting it in front of production companies, independent filmmakers and theater companies.
Houses and organizations I have worked with, and will work with
Tell me about the book.
Reading the book and talking about where it could go costs you nothing. The conversation comes first: what the book is, what you have already tried, and what you want from it.
