About Us
Books
Great Dog Literary is a boutique agency representing non-fiction picture books, middle-grade, young adult, graphic novels, and adult trade projects. We are particularly interested in working with clients who help us build the breadth of our list with diverse voices and perspectives.
We love bringing our editorial skills into the mix, working with our clients to develop their voice, refine their craft, and develop their projects as fully as possible prior to submission.
Digital
We also represent an extensive list of well-known authors and illustrators who control the rights to their backlists, and who have converted their catalogs to digital. We work to find distribution, both domestic and international, trade and educational, for these valuable digital collections.
We have extensive expertise in all aspects of self-publishing, and work with our authors both to build their books and to market them.
We are tech savvy and always on the lookout for innovative outlets and approaches to help our clients reach the widest possible audience.
