Agency submission guidelines

The agency does not accept submissions that have employed any use of AI in their creation, editing or submission process. Adult and children's fiction (picture books, Middle Grade and young adult) that encourages empathy and hope, champions new perspectives, and speaks to the writer's heart and soul is sought, as are texts that are uniquely the writer's own voice. Adult and children's non-fiction which provokes discussion and broadens minds is sought. Work from under-represented voices offering new perspectives is sought. Sci-fi, horror, cookery and crime are not represented.
