Submission guidelines

The agency does not consider unsolicited submissions sent by email. Poets should not submit unless they have already published poems in reputable literary magazines or in a pamphlet from a reputable small press; the agency does not take on poets who have already published book-length collections with other publishers. Submissions from outside Britain and Ireland are not considered unless by invitation or recommendation. New submissions of poetry in translation, and books of literary criticism (apart from titles published with Newcastle University), are not accepted.
