Take part in a WriteMentor Hub-exclusive pitching contest judged by literary agent Alice Williams.
Alice set up her agency in 2018 after representing children’s books for over ten years at David Higham Associates. She’s a passionate champion of the writers and illustrators she works with, and she’s frequently in awe of the beauty and sense of wonder (or absurdity) that her clients create!
Alice focuses on sensitive editorial/portfolio development, submitting and showcasing clients’ work widely, tenacious contract negotiation, and considered rights management.
She offers the personal support that gives her clients confidence to concentrate on their creative work, and the editorial and industry expertise that paves the way to commercial success.
Alice lives and works in London and has an extensive network of industry contacts in the UK and abroad. She attends the Bologna and London Book Fairs each Spring, as well as writers’ conferences throughout the year.
