“After just one hour with Krista, my jumbled portfolio began to take shape. I left with a clear sense of what was possible with my writing and information on publishing options. She was also clear on the long road ahead. I am grateful for Krista’s guidance, enthusiasm and personal touch. She has maintained a consummate business presence while being a personal companion on this ride, sending me kudos, sharing delight in accomplishment balanced with cautious patience.”

Some Nice Words

“When I needed a publicist to help promote my book, The Lily of the West, I found there were quite a few available, but upon discovering the highly recommended  Krista Rolfzen Soukup and Blue Cottage Agency, there was no need to look further. Krista is reliable, creative, ethical and well connected. She personifies that elusive quality of being a straight-shooter who is kind and non-judgmental. She’s been a tremendous help to me and I can’t recommend her highly enough. Simply the best.”
