We turn middle-grade writers into published authors.
Navigating the world of publishing can be difficult. Exhausting. Overwhelming. But it doesn’t have to be.
It can be enjoyable. Exciting. Fun!
At Argyle Fox Publishing, we make the publishing process simple and enjoyable.
Founded by Cleveland, Tennessee, author Daniel (D.K.) Brantley, we know what authors want, so we do things a bit differently.
We don’t work with templates.
We don’t have hidden fees.
We don’t make promises we can’t keep.
Instead, we follow the Golden Rule and treat our authors like we want to be treated.
“The folks at Argyle Fox Publishing are amazing! I couldn’t be happier about how my book turned out!”
