Our Authors
We love getting to know our amazing authors, and we are honored to help bring their unique visions to life. We have partnered with a diverse array of writers—from entrepreneurs, children’s wellness experts, and veterinarians, to professional guitarists and filmmakers, executive coaches, poets, and even a teenage novelist. The thing they all have in common is a deep passion for what they do—and great ideas for books.
This page is dedicated to celebrating our authors and the incredible work they do both in and outside of their books
