Meet the Literary Agents!

Advice, insider knowledge and expert guidance for aspiring authors

For many writers, the world of literary agents can feel difficult to access. What are agents really looking for? How do you make your submission stand out? And what actually happens when an agent decides they want to represent you?

Join Enrichetta Frezzato and Georgina Simmonds from Red Kite Literary for an illuminating look behind the scenes of the publishing industry.

Enrichetta specialises in children’s publishing, while Georgina represents authors writing for the adult market. Together, they’ll share the dos and don’ts of approaching an agent, their top tips for submitting your work, what catches their attention – and what doesn’t – and what happens after an agent agrees to represent you.

Whether you’re writing for children or adults, have a finished manuscript or are simply curious about the route to publication, this is a fantastic opportunity to hear directly from two industry experts and get practical, candid advice about taking that next step.

A limited number of separate one-to-one appointments with Enrichetta and Georgina will also be available. Details and booking information will be provided separately.
