A few tips on how to find the right agent for you:

• Search for authors and see the agency that represents them. Then check the agent's site to see if they are taking on new writers.
• Try a search for a particular genre such as science fiction (but the search might also list genres they DO NOT want!) so you might find our Agents Specialisms page more helpful
• Look through the agents with websites
• Use the index page to browse through the agents.

WritersServices agents' listings have been compiled from the information they publish, what they have told us and their own websites. Most agents provide some useful information about making submissions and you must check these.

We know it is immensely frustrating to submit your work without getting a response, perhaps having to wait months before you hear anything about your submission.

These are difficult times in publishing and the best advice we can give is to do some careful research to select the right agent(s) before sending your work.

And make sure that you make a good first impression by making sure your submission package is as effective as possible. There are some pages of advice. You could also consider using our Submission Critique service.

Do check the submission conditions set by each agent.

Some agents have closed their lists or do not acept unsolicitied submissions, so please check carefully to avoid wasting your time.
