Seth Godin's newest bestseller!
|
Lark Productions is a full-service book development company and literary agency, specializing in creating and representing innovative single titles, series, and comprehensive publishing programs for individual authors, as well as for organizations and corporate entities.
As a book producer, Lark invents original book concepts, creates sales proposals, represents sales proposals to major publishers, negotiates publishing contracts, and creates manuscripts and/or designed books for delivery to publishers. Lark also creates original literary content for non-book venues.
Lark represents authors in the sale of their book proposals to the most appropriate publishers, negotiates licensing agreements, and acts as an advocate for the author and the book throughout the publishing process.
Lark Productions has created over 150 books in a variety of categories of practical non-fiction, including business, crafts, health and fitness, gardening, pop culture, and popular reference.
As producers, our specialty is forging relationships with companies or individuals who may not have thought of turning their work into a book—or who knew they’d need to collaborate heavily to do so. For our partners, we invent the concept, sell the concept, and then make the book. We also work with partners who choose not to go the mainstream publishing route, but instead opt for self-publishing.
