Literary Agent One-to-One with Georgina Simmonds (Adult Fiction)

Discuss your book directly with a literary agent

Book a private ten-minute one-to-one appointment with one of the literary agents appearing at Maidstone LitFest.

This is an opportunity to discuss your book with an industry professional, talk about your project and receive individual feedback.

Georgina Simmonds – Adult fiction

Georgina represents authors writing for the adult market. Choose this appointment if you are writing adult fiction.

Only six appointments are available, making this an exceptionally limited opportunity.

Before you book, please check carefully that your manuscript is appropriate for your chosen agent.

Booking a one-to-one does not constitute an offer of representation or indicate that the agent is considering the manuscript for representation. The session is an opportunity to discuss your work and receive professional feedback.

Please note: the one-to-one is separate from the main Meet the Literary Agents event and requires a separate booking.

GEORGINA SIMMONDS joined Red Kite Literary as agent and founding partner in May 2026. After finishing her English degree, she qualified as a solicitor specialising in commercial and IP law before moving into publishing at Curtis Brown over ten years ago. While there she was part of the contracts and rights teams, working with bestselling authors across both the Curtis Brown and ICM lists, including Haruki Murakami, John le Carré, Walter Isaacson and Hanya Yanagihara. She then moved to work at Madeleine Milburn Literary Agency as an associate rights agent before being promoted to agent. Most recently, she has been back sharpening her legal skills as in-house counsel for a multinational NGO. Georgina loves working closely with authors editorially, but also uses her legal background to advocate on their behalf and protect client interests.
