Alice Caprio is a literary agent who works mainly on the children's list at Peters Fraser + Dunlop, which she joined in 2026. She previously worked as a literary agent at Felicity Bryan Associates. She holds an MA in Publishing from UAL. Listed clients include Alice Jamieson, Annalise Jensen, Elian J Morgan, Martin Wilson, Thalia Noelle and Megan Scanio.
Alice is building a list spanning middle grade, YA and crossover fiction across all genres, plus selective adult science fiction and fantasy. In middle grade she wants fantasy in every form, from epic to whimsical, along with unusual, imaginative high-concept stories with a speculative twist. For YA she is looking for fast-moving fiction with a strong hook and emotional depth. She also likes dystopias that explore gender, identity and feminist themes. Her taste leans commercial rather than literary, with a preference for a distinctive premise.
The agency accepts submissions by email only, not hard copy. For a novel, send the first three chapters (or around fifty pages), a full synopsis and a covering letter. Non-fiction needs a detailed proposal. Submit to one agent only. Replies are aimed for within eight weeks, and no reply after twelve weeks counts as a pass. Any AI use in the work must be disclosed. The email address is on the agency's website. This applied at the time of checking (November 2026).
