We believe good publishing begins with a good conversation. Tell us what you're working on — we read every message ourselves and respond within one business day.
We've been helping storytellers find their audiences since 2010. If you have a manuscript, a publishing programme, or a brand narrative that needs shaping — we'd love to hear from you.
Write to us. Tell us about your project, your goals, and your timeline. We'll respond thoughtfully within one business day.
Our onboarding process is simple, clear, and respectful of your time.
Absolutely. Some of our most rewarding projects have been with debut authors. We offer a full manuscript-to-market service for writers publishing for the first time, with clear guidance at every stage.
We work on projects from a single editorial consultation to multi-year retained partnerships. We don't have a minimum spend — we have a minimum level of fit. If we're not the right studio for your needs, we'll tell you honestly and point you toward someone who is.
Yes — roughly 60% of our clients are based outside the Bay Area, including clients in New York, London, Toronto, and Sydney. All of our services can be delivered remotely, and we conduct discovery calls and check-ins via video.
Yes, and we'd argue it's the most effective approach. When the editorial and marketing teams work together from the outset — shaping the manuscript with the audience in mind — the results are significantly stronger than when these are treated as separate phases.
We intentionally cap our active roster at around 50 projects. When we're at capacity, we maintain a short waitlist. We believe in giving every client the attention they deserve, and that means saying no sometimes.
