Modern Book Publicity for Nonfiction Authors

So you wrote a book?
Now it’s time for…

Publishers often over promise and under deliver, leaving authors to scramble to create an effective and impactful book launch plan.

Traditional PR isn’t worth the hefty price tag either as coverage isn’t guaranteed and media placements don’t move the needle when it comes to increasing book sales. So what does?

How We Move the Needle

We lean into the parasocial relationship to get buy in (and orders) from your community.

We get your book on as
many shelves as possible.

We connect you with your audience at in-person and virtual events.

What We Offer

Website Design

We’ll create a beautiful and functional website that will have orders flying in for your book.

Need help updating your already existing website with the latest book news? We do that, too.

Digital Outreach

So you want to reach out to the top Podcasts, top Substacks, niche influencers, indie book stores, or organizations that will buy your book in bulk and don’t know where to begin? We have a robust library of resources to create an outreach list specifically tailored for you and will reach out on your behalf!

If you already have a list ready to go and need help executing, you’re in the right place.

Event Coordination

We’ll get you in the doors at book stores and venues around the country to connect with your audience IRL. We can be on-site to manage the details and make sure the event runs smoothly.

We can also help run the behind-the-scenes logistics for virtual events.

Preorder Incentive Management

We love a good freebie and so will your reader! Let us handle verifying preorder sales, emailing the incentive, and tracking the process as it happens.

Latest Launches

It’s a good match if:

You have lists of people or organizations you want to connect with but don’t have time to do the outreach.

You’re a nonfiction author with an upcoming pub date.

Your anxiety is through the roof because you don’t have a strategic, forward-thinking, & results-driven pub plan.

You are disappointed in your publisher for how they are handling your book launch.

You want to tour your favorite cities & connect with your audience to celebrate your book being out in the world.

You want to know you did everything in your power to make your book a success.

Meredith is a natural do-er that leads with a comprehensive strategic vision, creative mindset, and executes with enthusiasm. With extensive experience in communications, design, and event management, Meredith founded her first company The Modern Wingwoman to lend her talents to small businesses.

As The Modern Wingwoman, Meredith partnered with a top selling nonfiction literary agent to elevate the author’s experience and drive book sales through activating an effective promotional plan. This successful venture helped Meredith to discover an untapped passion for the literary world and desire to help more authors, which led to the creation of The Literary Launch to provide modern book publicity for nonfiction authors.

Outside of her work, Meredith enjoys going on adventures with her son, car camping, and being immersed in nature. She is currently learning embroidery, developing her green thumb, and reading a nonfiction book. She volunteers as a Victim Advocate for The Women’s Center and will start her second master’s program in Fall 2026.

Author Praise

“Working with Meredith during the lead-up to my debut book launch has been an incredible experience. She is a pleasure to work with, hardworking, and truly fearless when navigating the many moving parts of a launch. Meredith brings both strategic clarity and genuine care to her work, which makes all the difference during what can be an emotionally intense season for a first-time author.

What sets Meredith apart is her ability to understand the unique emotional landscape of a debut author. She recognizes that launching a first book is both a professional milestone and a deeply personal moment, and she handles that responsibility with thoughtfulness and respect. Meredith balances big-picture marketing strategy with the small details that matter, ensuring I felt supported, informed, and confident every step of the way.

If you’re looking for a PR and marketing partner who is not only skilled and driven but also empathetic and deeply invested in your success, Meredith is someone you absolutely want in your corner. I’m incredibly grateful to have had her guidance during this pivotal moment in my career.”
