Jon

Agent. Editor. Book Marketer.

03 / Experience More than 25 years in publishing
Experience matters

25 years.
Every side of
the industry.

A career spent understanding how books are made, sold and brought to readers.

Jon has worked with tech entrepreneurs, thought leaders, Top Chefs, Tory and Olivier Award-winning producers, and child film stars-turned-Hollywood lawyers, to mention but a few.

That breadth of publishing experience gives JFM an understanding of the entire journey — from the first idea and proposal through to publication, positioning and promotion.

A hands-on approach

With our authors,
every step of

Good representation is about more than finding a publisher.

Jon is with his authors every step of the way — from book proposal creation to contract negotiation and manuscript editing, to book marketing and promotion. He is an author’s staunchest ally and most enthusiastic cheerleader.

05 / The Author The Templeton Family Chronicles
Posh and Trash — The Templeton Family Chronicles by Jon Malysiak
Jon, the author

The Templeton
Family
Chronicles

A transatlantic satirical fiction series about money, status, scandal and the people who have everything.

Jon co-wrote the first novel, Posh, with his late brother Colin. Following Colin’s death, Jon returned to the manuscripts and continued the series with its second novel, Trash.

Writing the series has given Jon another perspective on the publishing process — experiencing the journey not only as an agent, editor and publishing professional, but as an author himself.

Working with JFM

Don’t just take our
word for it.

“Jon is a perfect delight to work with. I thank my lucky stars I was fortunate to have his experienced hands shepherd my book to the finish line. Calm, considerate, supportive throughout and with years of publishing wisdom to offer. What more can an author ask for?”
Dina Gold Author of Stolen Legacy: Nazi Theft and the Quest for Justice at Krausenstrasse 17/18, Berlin
“Jon Malysiak is a talented editor who gets it all — from a book’s acquisition and structuring, through its editing, design and marketing. He can even assemble and conduct a first-rate author podcast! I have worked on two books with Jon, and found him always responsive and thoughtful.”
Paul Goldstein Author of The Michael Seeley Novels
“Jon simply rocks! Makes the process enjoyable and seamless. Helped my Dad edit a book on a hallmark immigration case involving a 1970s bitterly contested deportation of Beatle John Lennon. Jon cut through the delicate parts like butter and was appreciated for his sage counsel.”
Michael Wildes Author and World-Renowned Immigration Lawyer
