Insider’s View

Expertly Guided

“It was my lucky day when Lary Rosenblatt and Barbara Stewart of 22MediaWorks said “Let’s do it!” when I asked them to help me put out my first cookbook. They expertly guided me through concept development, to proposal, to negotiations with my publisher. They supported me every step of the way, addressing every query and resolving every concern. I couldn’t be more delighted and proud of the outcome and grateful for their guidance. They are the best and I enthusiastically anticipate our next project.”

Happy News

I started working with Lary Rosenblatt as the writer for Asian Pacific American Heroes, a middle grade nonfiction book for Scholastic. It was my first time writing in this genre and I had a steep learning curve and a short timeframe. Lary and his team gently and patiently worked with me until the project was completed. He has since helped me polish other children’s book manuscripts, securing two meetings with editors within just a few months of working together. The result of the first meeting is—happy news—a picture book contract! It’s been a dream come true working with Lary and his team! I feel nurtured and supported.”
