Submissions: if you are an author and are interested in being represented by the McKernan Agency:

- if you are currently published by an established publishing house (i.e. one that pays an advance against royalties) then please contact us here with brief details of your books to date and your current and future projects.

- in all other cases (including authors of self-published or 'print on demand' books) please make sure you have carefully read our submission guidelines on our FAQ page before using the form below to submit a sample of your work to us.

Please note that we do NOT accept submissions by hard copy, whether by post or in person. We can take no responsibility for work sent in to us, which may be disposed of unread.

N.B. Please do not phone to enquire about submissions - we are unable to provide any information that is not provided here or on our FAQ page.
