Ideas worth
publishing.
We represent original thinkers whose expertise deserves a wider audience.
Non-fiction, & fiction broadly imagined.
A deliberately small list, shaped around distinctive voices and exceptional expertise.
JFM Literary is a full-service boutique agency representing non-fiction and fiction authors at the top of their game who are looking to expand their influence through the printed word.
Our areas of representation.
We represent authors working across eight carefully selected areas of non-fiction.
Deeply
personal.
Made to feel like our only client.
Every author represented by JFM Literary receives the close, individual attention that can be difficult to find at a larger agency — especially for a first-time author.
From proposal to publication.
Guiding you through the full publishing process.
JFM Literary works with each author to develop a top-drawer book proposal before pitching it to the world’s leading book publishers. We protect our clients’ best interests throughout the entire publishing process — from contract negotiation and editing to marketing and promotion — so no author has to navigate the experience alone.
With you
at every
stage.
- 01 Develop the proposal

Representation, clearly defined.
