About Jodie
Jodie is an agent at United Agents Ltd, a literary and talent agency. Her route into agenting began in 2006, when she started working with Rosemary Canter, assisting on Canter's list, before she was made an agent in 2010. She keeps an open list for submissions. She also represents creators of comics and graphic novels for children.
What Jodie is looking for
Jodie loves picture books and young fiction. She is keen to see classic storytelling for readers aged 8 to 12, whether adventure, fantasy, historical, domestic or comedy, and is happy to see more comics and graphic novels for children. She is not the right agent for YA; writers of YA are referred to her colleagues Emily Talbot and Molly Jamieson. She is not interested in submissions that have used generative AI in their creation.
Submissions
At the time of checking (November 2026), Jodie was happy to receive submissions. Send a covering email with the material for your category as attachments: a synopsis and first three chapters for children's fiction, at least three stories not in a series for picture book texts, a selection of jpegs or a PDF portfolio for illustrators, or an outline and sample script for comics and graphic novels. Addresses are on the agency's website. No individual replies are sent; no reply within 12 weeks counts as a pass.
