Your first step on the road
to a book deal.

Power to the writers.

You’ve done the hard thing: you’ve written the book. Your dream of getting published feels just within reach.

But now you’re struggling to break through—fielding rejection letters, getting stuck in the “query trenches.” It seems like you can’t quite make heads or tails of how one actually makes the book deal happen.

I get it. I know this process can be confusing, opaque, and even painful. Worse still, I’ve seen firsthand how the pitfalls of this convoluted publishing process can come between incredible, deserving writers and their dreams.

I’m here to change that.

I’m here to empower writers to become authors.

Hi, I’m Lindsay.

I’ve made it my life’s work to help writers say those magic words: “I got a book deal!”

I’ve worked for some of the top book publishing institutions in the US—including Simon & Schuster, Inc. and Writers House Literary Agency. I’ve been on the receiving end of countless manuscripts, proposals, and query letters. I know what works, and what doesn’t.

Now, I’d like to arm you with the clear, concise strategies you need to make your book stand out.

I love bringing my clients’ publishing dreams to life.

After working together to strengthen their manuscript and create a stellar querying package, my clients have:

  • Received book deals with “Big Five” publishing houses.

  • Garnered representation from preeminent literary agencies including Aevitas Creative Management, Levine Greenburg Rostan, Dystel Goderich & Bourret, Stephanie Tade Agency and more.

  • Been named finalists in high-profile writing competitions.

  • Had their work featured in major media publications.
