How we work
For authors we represent, Tapping Frog Literary provides full editorial development from concept to publication. Our process includes manuscript development, editorial mentoring, structural editing, copyediting, design and production oversight. We work collaboratively with authors to refine voice and craft, and to prepare a book for publication.
Services for non-represented creators
We offer a range of paid services for authors who are not represented by our agency, including typesetting, copyediting and limited editorial packages. These services are delivered on a project basis; full development and mentorship are reserved for represented authors.
Outcomes and distribution
We invest in discovery and development rather than promising commercial outcomes. Where appropriate, we pursue distribution and partnerships to give titles the best possible reach, but market success varies and cannot be guaranteed.
