Advice from a UK Literary Agent - Fusion View Exclusive

If you are a writer aiming to have your book published in the UK, this is your chance to put a question to a UK Literary Agent.

It can be confusing for a new writer trying to send out their novel for the first time, especially if you are based outside the UK. Should I go via a literary agent or submit direct to the publisher? How do you find an agent? What format should I submit my manuscript in?

I am interviewing an established London-based literary agent for a Fusion View podcast in two weeks time and I am inviting you to email me your question about writing and getting published. I will select the best and most relevant questions and ask them during the interview so that you can get a personal answer from an industry insider.

All you have to do is ask your question, using the form below.

Due to the likely volume of responses, may I request that you ask only one question. Please also include at least your first name and the city or country where you live eg. Shazia from Johore in Malaysia.

The closing date is London time Midnight (GMT +1) Friday 11 August 2006 (Malaysian time 07.00am (GMT +7) Saturday 12 August 2006).

The podcast of my interview with the literary agent will be uploaded on Fusion View on Monday 21 August 2006 after 08.30am (GMT +1).
