The World's Tallest Writing Coach

Last spring, we had our first really big-time book deal thanks to the uber-talented Mel LeBrun, author of the Michael Cailen spy novels. We had the opportunity to edit the second version of her first novel, Black Pawn, and even though we shouldn’t play favorites, we have to say that Mel is probably our single-most enjoyable client – great sense of humor, always open to hearing new ideas and someone we value as a friend as well as a client.

A few months after Black Pawn went back out into the open, she came out with its sequel, Forced Move, which was the rare sequel that we found better than the original. Super agent Michael Cailen and his band of rogues and leading lady took us all over the world to try and shut down a child slavery ring.

Imagine our delight when Mel announced she’d be writing a third novel – and hiring us as her “Editorial Consultant” – which means we get the inside scoop on Michael & Jessica before anyone else.  We’re about 14 chapters in and it’s been a great ride so far!
