for everyone, and The Secret Kingdom is a place that welcomes children of all
ages.
I felt that I was in the hands of a pro...
From the beginning, and throughout the process of publishing my first book, I felt that I was in the hands of a pro. Dana always took the time to answer my questions in detail and swiftly, and if she didn't have 100% confidence, she researched the question and got back to me. I was very pleased with her and I am also thankful that I was paired with her as an Author Rep.

I have been very pleased with the way OP helped and handled the publishing of both my books. Tina was my first great agent and Dana continued that care and concern. I would definitely use this company again and recommend them to all who are now asking "How can I get published? Please keep up the good work and the integrity you have with your company.

Her guidance helped turn my dream into a reality…
The one-on-one with Lisa was great. Especially the phone call picking out styles, font, cover template etc. She even got a vote on the color. I so wanted to have my daughter's painting as the art work on the cover and she gave me a way to do that. Her guidance helped turn my dream into a reality and sometimes it is still hard to believe until I look at my book. Thank you.
