#1 New York Times Bestseller A special book that will change how you approach your day and live your life. --Ryan Holiday

I specialize in nonfiction at Writers House and am actively seeking works of journalism, creative nonfiction, strong narrative and/or memoir in which we learn about remarkable individuals or aspects of history, science, economics, technology, culture or art.

I also represent practical nonfiction, advice and how-to, especially in business, entrepreneurship, creativity, productivity and leadership categories.

I love working with authors who are on a mission, authors who have irresistible ideas and stories.
