Query Submission

Submission to Camille Burns at DKW

Hello!

Thank you so much for your interest. I'm always excited to read submissions from potential clients and to find that X factor...

Please note that while I am in the early stages of building my list, and in a bid to manage the volume of submissions, I am currently only accepting submissions from authors based in the UK, Ireland and the Commonwealth.

I'm keen to see lots of variety and to not be too prescriptive in what I do and don't want to see. If you feel like your work is something I might like, but can't see the genre listed below, select the closest available. Please do not send picture book, short story, poetry or adult non-fiction/memoir submissions at this time.

I do not believe in asking authors to send their material on an exclusive basis, as it is not in your best interests to do so; however, I do ask that you let me know, via QueryManager, if have had a full request from another agent. Please also use the notification system on QueryManager to let me know when you receive an offer of representation.

You will receive an automatic acknowledgement when your submission has been safely received. I do not believe in ghosting writers - it may take me some time, but you will receive a response from me.

Best of luck,
Camille
