More than a literary agency.

Hyponymous Literary helps culturally-creative authors shape their content, find their way in the puzzling world of publishing, and create discoverability with their audience. We help authors look holistically at their work, put the focus on the particularity of their writing, and resist generic, mass culture ways of thinking and acting. In a time of great change, we believe in independence, connectedness, and entrepreneurialism as values that create change.
