The August Agency

As well as providing editorial guidance, we have worked closely with our clients on design of their careers, series development, namebranding, marketing, promotion, web and social media presence. We have sold works for hardcover, trade paper, and mass market paperback editions, as well as digital, film, audio, reprint, gaming, and foreign rights. O... utlets have included academic presses, genre presses, regional houses, content providers, educational testing services, as well as the traditional, advance-paying publishers, such as HarperCollins, Career Press, John Wiley & Sons, Harvard Business Press, Gale, F&W Media, Praeger, AMACOM Books, Alyson Publishing, Clark-Nova Books, and Writer's Digest Books. We hold to the belief that we maintain the highest standards in business operations, in relationships, and in the work we represent. So when it came to selecting a name, August seemed a natural fit. Augustus Caesar fostered the golden age of Roman literature, the first era dubbed the Augustan Age of Literature. Since then subsequent eras of great prosperity in artistic writing included the reign of Louis XIV, the Augustan Age of French literature, and that of Queen Anne, the Augustan age of English literature. As writers ourselves we want our authors to have more than just a salesman for their book; we firmly believe we should be, among other things, an author's ultimate advocate, anchor, arbitrator, and advisor. Keeping those goals in mind, we operate as a team, bringing the sum of our talents to work on behalf of every August author. about The August Agency LLCRead More
