A Tale of Two Agents: Chapter Thirty-Seven. A is for Amplify, B is for Bologna

Apr 19

“You may have the universe if I may have Italy.”

— Giuseppe verdi

The little red booth that could allowed us four glorious days in Bologna to showcase our newest array of children’s fiction and non-fiction titles, along with middle grade and YA fiction series.

With 60 meetings, 15 unscheduled walk-ins, author appearances, and contacts new and old, the Bologna Children’s Book Fair surpassed pre pandemic attendance.

Another Fair to Remember

For those who did not attend the event in person, we are pleased to extend an invitation to visit our Bologna Children's Book Fair Virtual Booth, allowing you to access the fair from the comfort of your own workspace.

Welcome Amplify Publishing Group

We couldn’t be more thrilled to welcome leading indie publisher Amplify Publishing Group to DropCap representation.

Co-founded in 2003 by Naren Aryal, Amplify Publishing Group began with a single title. When that book achieved market success, Naren was more than happy to give up his career as a corporate attorney and dive headfirst into the dynamic publishing industry.

As the company grew, so did its reach, attracting a wide array of authors with engaging, powerful ideas. Today, APG is home to six distinct imprints and is the culmination of twenty years of experience acquiring, producing, marketing, and distributing books that serve unique missions and goals.

APG’s list of authors includes bestselling authors who first published traditionally, debut writers looking to produce their first professional work, and everyone in between, making APG a diverse, accessible entity into the world of books.
