Have you ever thought about writing a book? During my sold-out book release party with my dear friend and client Grace Kraaijvanger, founder of The Hivery, she asked the room, “How many people want to write a book?” 75% of the people in the room raised their hands.
If you want insight into how the publishing process works, you’re in for a treat because today I talk to my literary agent, David Fugate, who shares advice about what it takes to publish a book.
David Fugate is the President & Founder of LaunchBooks Literary Agency at launchbooks.com. He has represented a wide range of bestselling fiction and nonfiction projects that have generated in excess of $50 Million for their authors, including Andy Weir, #1 New York Times bestselling author of The Martian, which was turned into the Golden Globe winning film starring Matt Damon and directed by Ridley Scott, Artemis, and Project Hail Mary, currently in development to become a film starring Ryan Gosling.
He also represents authors Chris Guillebeau, author of the New York Times bestselling The $100 Startup, Side Hustle, and The Happiness of Pursuit; Vanessa Van Edwards, author of the Wall Street Journal bestsellers Captivate and Cues; Megan Devine, author of the 300,000+ copy selling It’s Ok That You’re Not Ok; Jadah Sellner (that’s me!), author of She Builds with Harper Business, and many others.
What you'll hear (and don't want to miss!):
:: What David sees as being the most challenging parts of the book publishing process for authors launching a book
:: The key characteristics an author needs to manage the book writing journey successfully
:: How the clientele he represents has evolved over the years, and why he says that he doesn’t necessarily follow trends
:: His best advice for someone thinking about publishing a book
:: Tips and strategies for the launch phase of getting a book out into the world
