How did BookEnds get started?
BookEnds Literary Agency first started when two good friends decided to make a change. In 1999, Jessica Faust and Jacky Sach were sitting in their Brooklyn apartment wondering what they could do differently, and it was from that conversation that BookEnds was founded. Originally starting a book packaging company, it wasn’t long before Jessica and Jacky realized that they wanted even more. They missed working on fiction and they missed seeing what could come from an author’s imagination. So not two years after opening its doors, BookEnds changed its literary status to Agency. Since that time, Jacky has left to forge yet another successful career and to continue to follow her dreams. However, BookEnds continues to operate with the same attitude as when we started: We’re about achieving dreams and doing what we love. Representing fiction and nonfiction for a primarily adult market, BookEnds agents all hope to continue to live their dreams while helping authors achieve theirs.
