Rights and business affairs

Protect the work. Build the career.

Every publishing opportunity is considered as a complete business package, not simply a headline advance.

01

Domestic Book Rights

Print, ebook, territory, language, royalty, option, delivery, publication, and reversion terms.

02

Audio & Translation

Rights may be retained, licensed directly, or handled with qualified co-agents depending on the opportunity.

03

Film, TV & Dramatic

Specialist entertainment counsel or experienced co-agents may be engaged when appropriate.

Author control

The agency cannot bind an author to a publishing or rights agreement without the author’s approval. Copyright remains with the author except for rights expressly granted in a separate signed contract.

Contract priorities

Negotiation considers the full economic and career picture: advance and payment schedule, royalties, territory, formats, option clauses, non-compete restrictions, delivery and acceptance, publication commitments, accounting, audit rights, warranties, indemnities, artificial-intelligence uses, and rights reversion.

Specialized legal advice may be recommended for complex agreements. Website information is general and is not legal advice.
