About Alexander
Alexander Cochran is an agent at Greyhound Literary, having joined the agency in December 2024. He brought with him a list of authors he developed over six years in his previous role at C&W. Greyhound Literary was founded in 2014 and rebranded under its current name in 2022, and it is a member of the Association of Authors' Agents.
What Alexander is looking for
Alexander is actively building his list, with interest in speculative fiction, commercial fiction, literary fiction, crime and thriller, and serious non-fiction. In fiction, he is drawn to commercial thrillers, dark crime, and science fiction and fantasy that push boundaries or cross genres. On the non-fiction side, he favours serious books with big ideas that challenge assumptions, serious histories, and narrative non-fiction on contemporary events and issues.
Submissions
At the time of checking (November 2026), Alexander is closed to submissions. Agency-wide, submissions must be emailed directly and only to the chosen agent, with the address on the agency's website. Fiction requests take a pitch in the email body with the first three chapters and a synopsis attached; non-fiction takes a proposal and sample writing. The agency aims to reply within six to eight weeks and accepts no postal submissions. Work must be entirely the author's own, not generated by or co-written with AI.
