For Authors
Built for authors
who want more.
Whether you wrote a memoir, a business book, a self-help guide, or a novel, NARRA was built for authors who treat their work like a brand. Most of our clients are thought leaders, coaches, executives, and storytellers who have already done the hard work of writing. NARRA handles everything that comes after.
01 / Who We Build For
Four kinds of authors. One standard of production.
The story only you can tell.
Memoir lives or dies on voice. A flat read kills it. We produce memoir like a film, scored, paced, and performed so the emotional through-line lands the way it did on the page. Your voice, or a cast we direct around your manuscript.
Best for: lived-experience memoir, family history, recovery, identity, immigrant stories, legacy projects.
Authority you can hear.
Executives, founders, and operators don't read business books anymore, they listen on the way to the next meeting. We make sure your ideas arrive with the gravity they deserve: clean delivery, strategic emphasis, and chapter assets you can drop into a keynote, a course, or a podcast tour.
Best for: founder playbooks, leadership, strategy, finance, frameworks-and-systems nonfiction.
Your work, in their ears, every morning.
This category is won on intimacy and repetition. We engineer the listen so it earns a place in someone's daily routine, and we cut the assets (intros, exercises, audio companions, course modules) that turn one book into an entire client journey.
Best for: coaches, therapists, performance and wellness authors, frameworks for change.
Cast it. Score it. Release it like a season.
If your readers already exist, your audiobook is a launch event. We cast a full ensemble for your characters, direct the performances, and score the production. The result feels closer to prestige TV than a flat narration, which is what your audience is actually paying for.
Best for: series authors, indie fiction with a following, genre fiction, literary novels with strong voice.
02 / Who You Work With
David J. Rhodes built this for authors.
Co-founder David J. Rhodes has spent decades working with leaders, entrepreneurs, and published authors across 156 countries. As founder of D.D. Bliss Publishing and a published author himself, David works directly with every NARRA client, from the first conversation to the finished product.
Authors come to NARRA for the studio. They stay because of David.
"I've worked with authors at every stage, first-time memoirists, founders writing their second book, novelists with a devoted audience. What they have in common is that the book is never the finish line. It's the asset everything else gets built on. NARRA is what I wish had existed for every one of them."
