Submitting work.
We are not currently looking for new fiction clients, but we are considering well crafted non-fiction. If you’d like to send us your material, please approach us in writing (email or via hard copy) with your publishing history and CV, together with a synopsis, 3 sample chapters and a SAE for the return of your material. Do note we cannot return your material without an SAE. We do prefer email and it's better for the environment!
Creative Authors does not charge a
reading fee. Our rates and additional information are available on
request.
If you wish to make a
non-fiction submission please do so via email.
Please do not telephone us regarding unsolicited submissions. We are not unfriendly, but simply do not have the time to return calls regarding unsolicited submissions. If you wish to submit your proposal or sample chapters from your novel, email or write to us.
Please note we are unable to provide detailed feedback unless we decide to represent you. If you are a writer seeking a more detailed response to your work, we can recommend The Writers' Workshop, Cornerstones, and The Oxford Editors all of whom assist on a fee-paying basis.
It is also worth taking a look at the following books:
THE WRITERS’ & ARTISTS’ YEARBOOK (A&C Black)
THE WRITER’S HANDBOOK (Macmillan)
CHILDREN’S WRITERS’ & ARTISTS’ YEARBOOK (A&C Black)
Our agency experiences a very high volume of submissions, so please do not chase us. Our first priority are the authors who are already signed to the agency. Responses for unsolicited submissions can take anywhere between 4 to 8 weeks. Please be patient.
The high level of unsolicited material received each week makes it impossible to log submissions as they pass through the office. We cannot be held responsible for material that may be lost or damaged in transit or otherwise. Always keep a copy of your material for your records.
We are not looking for fantasy, science-fiction, poetry, short stories, plays and scripts. We are also not looking for fiction at present.
All submissions handled in confidence
