Submission guidelines

The Hamilton Agency takes submissions through the form on its website only, not by post or phone. What to send: a covering letter, a short bio and a brief synopsis, with a sample or the full manuscript attached as a Word document. Worth knowing: the agency specialises in challenging and provocative non-fiction across the political spectrum, and in music writing and autobiography. It replies only to submissions it wants to read more of; if you have not heard within two months, it will not be offering representation and your submission will be deleted, so keep a copy of anything you send.
