AWLA Author REPRESENTATION
If you would like to submit a title for consideration, please go to the submissions page. It's a very competitive market and at present AWLA is taking on very few new projects. But something outstanding, well, of course we are interested!
The current roster of AWLA authors includes:
Philip Caveney: Highly acclaimed author Philip Caveney has had a long publishing career and is perhaps best-known for his Sebastian Darke series of books. His most recent adventure is the Scottish, Edinburgh Festival set detective story THE CALLING. As Danny Weston he, has won this year's Scottish Children's Book Award for older readers with THE PIPER (Andersen). He has a new novel SLITHER which is just going out on submission in the UK.
Tim Drake: Entrepreneur, provocateur and author, Tim Drake's latest book A SECOND BITE OF THE CHERRY is a book for all of us, looking at the need to rise to the huge societal shift that is being brought upon the world by the shift to a world with an ageing demographic. It is a book about not losing the wealth of talent and experience that is out there and about achieving our full potential at any stage of life. AWLA is also representing his fantastic backlist including HOW TO MAKE A DIFFERENCE (Marshall Cavendish) and YOU CAN BE AS YOUNG AS YOU THINK (Pearson Life).
Ethan Harrison: A journalist, blogger, columnist and holder of the secret to many a conspiracy, Ethan is the author of fast paced, riotous and rollicking tales including the underground hit ILLUMINATI HUNTER.
