  • Wildbound PR is a California-based literary publicity and marketing company founded by Julia and Jared Drake. Our team leverages media, social, events, and video to connect authors and storytellers with readers across the globe — spotlighting work that entertains, challenges, and transforms.

  • A great book isn’t enough — people have to know it exists. We combine media relationships, digital strategy, out of the box events, and creative outreach to help your story rise above the noise and land with the right audience.

  • We help you refine your platform (website, social media, newsletter), craft a custom campaign strategy, and generate visibility through press, events, and content. Our approach is personalized, strategic, and rooted in relationship-building — we never spray and pray, but focus on building meaningful relationships with media and readers.

  • Ideally, 4–6 months before a book launch. That gives us time to build your platform, pitch long-lead media, plan events, and coordinate the rollout.

  • We mostly represent traditionally and hybrid published authors, but we occasionally take on self-published projects that align with our standards and vision.

  • If we take you on, it means we believe in your story — and we’ll get it in front of the media, influencers, and readers who matter.

  • Most campaigns last 4-6 months. We start by building your platform, then roll out pitching, events, and momentum-building media over time. Some clients stay with us year-round.

  • We care deeply. We’re selective, strategic, and adventurous. We don’t follow formulas — we follow the story, and we make sure it gets heard.
