A literary consultant and literary agent, Jacqueline has worked with best-selling author Paolo Coelho. A chat with her can definitely help get a non-fiction book idea off the ground.
My main expertise is in non-fiction including: business, personal development, self-help, mind body spirit, parenting, diet and health. As a commissioning editor who couldn't find the right author for the job, I wrote the bestselling Handbag Book of Girlie Emergencies and two follow-up books. I also develop and represent women's fiction.
Everyone has a book in them, so the saying goes. It is true that many people do – particularly if you feel passionately about a great idea.
Do you have an idea that excites you? Or do you have a great business idea? Then you’ll also have a good idea for a book.
I can work with you to turn sparks of ideas into books. A one-off chat can really get your idea off the ground and help you focus.
I can advise you at any stage from wanting to write a book, through writing it and getting it published.
As a literary consultant and literary agent, I use my industry knowledge and experience to help you to decide how best to get your book to market.
Should you approach literary agents and publishers or should you self-publish?
Self-publishing is now just as valid a route to market as a publishing house because the internet makes it so easy to do. I can help you weigh up the options and decide on the right approach for you.
I’m also co-founder of London Writers' Club - the club that brings authors closer to the publishing industry. www.londonwritersclub.com
