"The Ebeling Agency of course offers the proficiency and professionalism one expects.  But they add to the mix an unexpected passion- an untiring commitment to the success of their clients, and a relentless, thoughtful, creative quest for new opportunities.  Elsewhere, clients may at times feel we have to prod our agents to keep working on our behalf.  Here, you have to race to keep up!  That is unexpected, unique- and truly outstanding."

"Michael and Kristina have redefined the literary agency for the twenty-first century. By taking a fresh and creative approach to representation, they were able to place my book with a terrific publisher in a matter of days. I would highly recommend them to any author looking not just for an agent, but for a trusted business advisor."

"When I first saw that the Ebeling Agency was in Hawaii, I almost didn't submit to them.  You know, the old saying, "If they are real agents, they would be in NY."  But I looked at their website and realized their philosophy matched my own.  It's not all about marketing and platform.  It's about selling a good book, and first having a good book to sell.  It's also about developing your career and having agents that see the big picture for you and for your work.  Michael and Kristina are in it for the love of writing and writers and it shows in everything they do.  To put it another way, they're not jaded pricks.  At least, not yet.  I couldn't be happier at the Ebeling Agency, all the way in Hawaii, home of the POG-a-tini."

“Michael and Kristina go above and beyond the traditional agent/client role. Besides being brilliant and creative agents, they are mentors, they are friends, and they are like family! They are the driving force behind and the reason my book, The Bra Book, is poised to be such a success.  They not only stand behind an author and a project 100%, they actually immerse themselves in the project and give it all of their creative energy and brainpower.  Both Michael and Kristina have unique things to offer – besides a wealth of experience in the publishing world and numerous successes under their belts, with them, you get both the ying and the yang!”

Jene Luciani - author of The Bra Book: The Fashion Formula to Finding the Perfect Fit (BenBella Books 2009)

"It is an incredible pleasure working with Kristina and Michael.  They are both great at what they do and wonderful people to be around.  I am deeply grateful for the energy and passion that they have invested towards promoting and selling my book.  Kristina and Michael's efforts and hard work helped to make a dream come true."

“As an international leader in neuro-linguistic programming and business development, it was a high priority for me to find an agent that could best represent my interests.  I sought an agency that would be dedicated mentors throughout my literary career, had not just literary credentials but a high business acumen, were savvy in sales and marketing, and shared a passion for my message.  With Ebeling & AssociatesLiterary Agency, I not only found all these traits, but discovered agents with a deep sense of integrity and positive energy.  They are trusted advisors, know the business inside and out, and have authors’ best interests at heart.  I can’t recommend them enough.”

"
Ebeling and Associates Literary Agency took me from a quick-fix self-publishing idea to a book contract with a mainstream publisher. I learned that there is work involved in being published and developing a platform. We are now looking at an entirely new level of helping people with our message."

"Ebeling & Associates Literary Agency masterfully guided me through the complicated process of publishing from printing and distribution to publicity and internet marketing.  The online “affiliate” networking they set in place for my book, The World’s Healthiest Foods, was an instrumental piece to its successful launch.  The dedication, skill, and industry intelligence Ebeling & Associates demonstrated throughout our working relationship has been incredible. I wholeheartedly recommend  them to anyone seeking comprehensive publishing consultation."
