We welcome Bhakthi, and here’s what they had to say about selecting JDM as their literary agency;

“I’m thrilled to be joining JDM’s stable. Both Jacinta and Danielle have shown great vision for the publishing industry here in Australia and understand the ways it needs to grow and evolve. I love their ambition for me as a writer and for the works they champion.”
