The Drop-In

Would you like to meet a Literary Agent?

Date: Last Wednesday of the month
Time: 12.00 (London, UK time)

Sometimes it can feel like publishing is not for you. I’m here to tell you it is. Whatever your background, whatever your current circumstance, your story matters.

Please come along to my monthly zoom to meet me (I hope to ensure everyone goes away feeling like there’s at least one friendly, approachable literary agent out there, though I assure you, there are many), chat about the industry, talk about books, ask anything you like (there are no stupid questions).

Register below for the next zoom drop-in (or let us know in the comment/question box which month you’d like to apply for).

You are welcome to apply again in the future, even if you’ve already attended a session.

This isn’t a pitch session – but please do follow me on Bluesky/Instagram as I plan to also hold regular virtual pitching sessions. You don’t need to wait for that to submit your work though – please visit the submission page for details of how to send your work for consideration.

I try to send the invites out on the Friday before the session. If you’re submitting your application after this point it’s likely you’ll be invited the following month.
