A new and up to date list of agents.

[Scott R. Forshaw]

I know a thread like this already exists, but I guessed a more up to date one might be more helpful.

Okay, so my WiP isn't ready for submission yet, but I know a lot of yours are. As this is the case, I figured I'd compile a list of agents who are currently open to submissions, in a bid to help some of you out. And, who knows, if any of you get a deal, you might want to point them in my direction.

The lists below are of agents who specialise in SF/F.


This relatively small list is of agents based in the UK:

This somewhat larger list is of agents based in the US:

I plan on extending the lists when I have more time. In the meantime, however, happy hunting.

All the best

Scott.

A couple more in the UK:

Anubis agency
John Jarrold
Xeno (currently closed, but they open from time to time)
Snowbooks (publisher, but they do sci fi and fantasy and are direct submission)
Gollancz are open at the moment.

Thanks, Springs.

Very handy, thanks Scott! (and springs!)

Should add Meg Davis at Ki Agency

Note: The Cooke Agency is based in Canada

 

[Susan Boulton]

This is a list of agents who used to consider Fantasy and SF. BUT you need to check their websites and do a bit of research into what they are looking for now IF they are still interested and what they are currently interested in. Also a number of them only open for submissions at certain times, again you need to look into that, as well as what they want in regards to submissions/pitches.

Sadly Mic Cheetham appears to have vanished. The website has been unavailable for weeks and phone calls are redirected to Simon Kavanagh's voicemail. Does anyone know what's happened?
