Submissions

Have a book you want us to read? It’s difficult to say what we’re looking for until we see it, but it needs to be as good as you can possibly make it if we are to offer representation. If you can make us laugh or cry or – even better – both, then you’re definitely on the right track. We only represent poetry or picture books in exceptional circumstances, or when they’re by our existing authors, and science fiction is better represented by specialists in the field.
