About

Robin Wade, while working as a Political Risk Insurance Broker in the City, wrote a book but struggled to find an agent. Taking matters into his own hands he managed to bluff his way past a receptionist, spoke directly to an editor and within two weeks he had an offer of publication. Robin wouldn't recommend this as the ideal way to approach publishers, but the contacts he made through his own writing gave him the confidence to set up as an agent, with his invaluable experience of the industry from the author's point of view.

We are actively looking for new writers across the board, both general and genre fiction and non-fiction (but excluding books for children, poetry, plays, screenplays and short stories). We seek manuscripts that are well written, with strong characters and an original narrative voice. Our absolute priority is on giving the best possible service to the authors we choose to represent, and to maintaining routine friendly contact with them while we help develop their careers.

Before Submitting

We cannot guarantee that the information on this page is correct. We do our best to keep up, but it isn't always possible. Duotrope listings do not imply endorsement or recommendation of the agent or agency being listed. Before submitting, you should use your own judgment to determine whether the agent/agency meets your standards.

  • Always read the full guidelines provided by the agency/agent.
  • Unless the agency's guidelines state otherwise, always use industry standard manuscript formatting.
  • For agency submissions, it is standard to submit a query letter and sample instead of the full manuscript. Do this unless otherwise instructed.
  • Be professional, patient, and persistent.
