LET’S GET YOU PUBLISHED
Which path is right for you?
Three paths to publishing. One partner to get you there.
Publish independently, or aim for a literary agent, and if we have some agencies in mind, we'll introduce it to them ourselves.
Here’s how each option works:
open to every author
1. Indie Publishing
We give your book the polish and production of a major house, and you keep the rights to everything.
WHAT WE DO:
Professional editing
Custom cover design
Interior formatting for print and ebook
Upload to your Amazon KDP and IngramSpark accounts
What stays yours: Your publishing accounts, 100% of your royalties, all rights, and ISBNs in your name.
open to every author
2. Querying Agents
Going after a traditional deal? We'll get the manuscript and the materials ready so you can query with confidence.
WHAT WE DO:
Editing aimed at what agents and publishers look for
A polished query letter, synopsis, or book proposal
A targeted list of agents open to your genre
Coaching and encouragement while you submit
Come to us at any stage: From the first idea, a draft in need of edits, or a finished manuscript.
open to every author
3. ICONIC Mentorship
The Sweet Spot Method. We help you build your book where your passion and what’s selling in the market meet.
WHAT WE DO:
Twice-monthly coaching for a full year
Shape the book from idea to finished draft
Edit it, then build what comes next
WHY IT WORKS: We start with the story you actually want to write. Then we track what the market is buying and adjust the angle, the hook, and the positioning until the two line up. You don’t trade away the book you love. We simply show you how to TARGET IT.

Agent Introductions
The one thing you can't buy. When we believe a manuscript is ready and we see a real fit with an agency connection of ours, we take it to literary agencies ourselves.
WHAT WE DO:
→ Introduce your work directly to agencies we know
→ Match your book with agents actively seeking it
→ Stay with you through responses and offers
Our promise: No charge and no commission, ever. If an agent offers, they represent you directly. No one can guarantee an offer, but our name behind your book means it gets read.
No fee. Offered at our invitation.

How agent introductions work
Introductions aren't a package you can buy. When your manuscript is edited and complete, we review it against the same questions agents ask. If it's ready and we see a strong fit with an agency we know, we make the introduction ourselves, at no charge. Being selective is what makes those introductions count, and we’ll share our reasoning with you either way.
Part of what we look for (& help you with):
A compelling hook: A premise an agent can pitch in a sentence.
Craft at a professional level: Strong voice, clean prose, and a structure that holds.
A clear place in the market: A defined genre, readership, and comparable titles.
Submission-ready: Fully revised, within genre word-count expectations, and complete.
Questions Writers Ask Us (FAQs)
Do I have to write the whole book with you?
No. Plenty of authors write with us from the first idea, and plenty arrive with a finished manuscript and just want final edits, query materials, or publishing. Come to us at whatever stage you're at.
What if you don't offer me an agent introduction?
You can still pursue traditional publishing. You'll have your query package and our guidance to submit to agents yourself, plus specific feedback on what would strengthen the book. You can also revise and be reconsidered, or you can publish independently with us at any time.
Can you guarantee I'll get an agent?
No one in or outside of publishing can. What we can promise is a professionally prepared book and submission package from a team agents trust.
Who owns my book if I publish independently?
You do. The accounts, the rights, and the royalties are all yours. We work on your behalf, never as your publisher.
Can I bring a manuscript I've already written?
Yes, absolutely. Pick which editing option you’d like to start with, and we'll take it from there.
