What Natalie is looking for
The agency considers submissions in all genres. Its stated priority is commercial fiction, non-fiction and children's titles, particularly from under-represented groups and from lower socio-economic backgrounds. The agency describes its aim as bringing change through storytelling, and it represents a diverse range of writers, creatives and original content creators.
Submissions
At the time of checking (November 2026), submissions to the Originate Literary Agency are sent by email, and the submission address is on the agency's website. Send a covering letter, a synopsis and the first three chapters. Fiction queries do not need a complete manuscript. Illustrated fiction and non-fiction should send a covering letter, synopsis and sample spreads instead. The agency cannot respond to every query, and will be in touch if it wishes to progress a work.
