"According to Kim Dower of Kim-from-L.A. Literary and Media Services, which trains authors to communicate effectively on radio and TV, a connection is made in the first 30 seconds. If it's not, she says, the channel is changed. 'It's an emotional connection, it's an informational connection. You're joining the substance of what the person is saying with the way they're saying it.'"  -- Chicago Sun-Times

As literary publicists, we tailor our campaigns to suit your needs and your budget. We provide everything from local and regional publicity to national book tours.

As media trainers, we take your great idea—whether it is in the form of a book, lecture or presentation—and help you to focus it, shape it, and deliver it with passion, excitement and clarity, whether to a reporter, in front of a camera, or to a live audience of thousands. We help you to create your own self-assured style, eliminate your fear of public speaking, and demonstrate how you can “own and control” your interview.

The services we provide are separate. You can hire us strictly for literary publicity or just for media training. And, of course, you can hire us for both! We invite anyone to give us a call at 323-655-6023, or to email us at kimfromla@earthlink.net to find out how we can help you with whatever you might need.
