Nappaland Literary Agency began informally in 1995, as a side business of Nappaland Communications Inc., when author and editor, Mike Nappa, realized that a few very talented writers needed an agent in order get published. More than a decade later, Nappaland Literary has helped connect dozens of authors with publishing partners to bring quality books into the marketplace.
Over the years Mike Nappa has deliberately resisted using the success of Nappaland Literary to expand the author roster beyond a manageable size, preferring instead a boutique approach that limits the company to no more than 15 active authors on any agent's client roll at any time. Currently Nappaland Literary represents a number of highly-skilled authors, with several bestsellers and award-winners among them.
At present, Nappaland Literary is not accepting any new authors for representation unless they are recommended by a current Nappaland author, agent, or editor.
Nappaland Literary currently emphasizes the following publishing categories in its efforts:
• Family/ Parenting
• Pop Culture
• Historical Nonfiction
• Literary Fiction
• Suspense Fiction
• Women's Fiction
• Women's Nonfiction
• Young Adult (fiction and nonfiction)
• Christian Living
• Apologetics
We DO NOT represent memoirs, children's books, romance novels, or
any other categories not listed above. Please accept our apologies
if your category of interest is not represented in this list.
