About Dotti

Dotti Irving joined Greyhound Literary as an agent in 2022, coming on board as a literary PR specialist. Following a decade at Penguin, she set up Colman Getty, a PR agency specialising in publishing and campaigning, and in 2012 she sold it to Four, a larger comms agency. She was featured in every Bookseller Top 150, one of only 12 people and the only woman to do so. Dotti is also Deputy President of the Royal Literary Fund. Clients listed on her profile include Matt Blake, Sarah Close, Reuben Coe, Manni Coe, Robert Elms, Jonny Fox, Anthea Rowan, Tina Shingler, Sam Stephens and Jack Wallington.

What Dotti is looking for

Dotti is primarily interested in narrative non-fiction, particularly books that tell a story that feels true and speaks to a wider audience.

Submissions

At the time of checking (November 2026), the agency said it was actively looking for new clients. Submissions for Dotti are sent by email to the address published on the agency's website. For non-fiction, send a cover letter with a pitch in the body of the email, attaching a proposal and sample writing. Replies are aimed for within six to eight weeks. Work must be entirely the author's own, not generated by or co-written with AI.
