Some studios chase stories.
We build them.
Wagging Tales Press Story Studio is an independent story studio crafting original, high-concept IP for books, film, and beyond. We specialize in narrative worlds with emotional depth, commercial bite, and long-tail potential—engineered to scale across verticals.
Inside our vault lives a lineup of stories that span genres but speak the same language:
Heart. Momentum. Immersion.
We write to ignite. To adapt. To endure.
Whether it's a cozy mystery, a romcom with claws, or a globe-trotting kidlit franchise, every WTP project begins as a spark—and ends as a world.
We don't ask what a story could be.
We ask how far it can go.
WTP Story Studio.
Where stories aren't just told. They're launched.

THE EYE OF THE STORM
When a $500 million art heist collides with a rogue plot to weaponize the weather, the only hope to stop a man-made hurricane barreling up the eastern seaboard lies with a washed-up FBI agent and a brilliant asset recovery specialist. The forecast calls for chaos. And that’s just the opening scene.

OUT OF BOUNDS
When a legacy coach with NFL dreams disguises herself as a man to land a job on a struggling team, she expects to call plays—not fall for the team’s charming quarterback. With help from her best friend (a sharp-tongued sports therapist with a killer playlist and a closet full of secrets), she’s out to prove that in football—and love—all voices deserve to be heard... preferably over nachos and beer.

Now, with the floodwaters rising and the past clawing at her heels, Hunter must confront her own demons to stop a ritual of blood, vengeance, and power.

The Devil believes in you.
