Tara Wynne

An agent with Curtis Brown Australia (see other agents at this agency).

About

I could not believe my luck when I landed my first publishing job at Sheil Land Associates, in the heart of Bloomsbury - next door to the house of Charles Dickens and home to so many of my literary heroes growing up.

I joined Curtis Brown UK in 1998 and arrived at Curtis Brown Australia in 2002 inheriting a list of authors from internationally renowned writer, Garth Nix.

Unashamedly more commercial in my leanings, I represent a broad range of plot driven fiction by writers from all walks of life. I love psychological suspense, historical and crime as well as female focused fiction about life love and relationships. My non-fiction taste is mostly driven by big ideas told through a more personal and accessible lens. As a mother of three I could not resist a few awesome picture book, middle-grade and YA writers too! I aim to work closely with my clients on a long term basis and strive to work together as a team.

When not at the office you will find me sharing delicious food and wine with friends; hanging with the kids at home but mostly at the beach; walking the dog by the ocean or swimming in it!

Agent Impersonation Scams are becoming commonplace.
A legitimate agent will not contact you and request money to represent you. Never pay an agent an up-front fee. That is not how literary agent representation works. Agents earn a commission only after they've landed a publishing deal for you. Also, agents scarcely ever contact writers. If an agent that you haven't queried contacts you about representation, be suspicious. Look up the agent and check if the email address is correct for that agent/agency.

  • Always read the full guidelines provided by the agency/agent.
