Seventh Agency is a literary agency committed to the long view of writers’ careers. We take a development-focused approach to representation, investing in voices we believe in and supporting writers at every stage of their journey.

Seventh Agency also functions as the literary division of IAG, the premier talent agency renowned for representing exceptional and diverse talent across theatre, television, and film.

  • Our work goes beyond securing deals. We partner with writers to refine their craft, strengthen their positioning, and navigate the realities of the publishing marketplace. From editorial development and strategic guidance to identifying publishing pathways and opportunities, we are dedicated to helping writers place their work where it can thrive.

  • While we proudly represent a roster of award-winning and bestselling authors, our commitment extends further. Even when representation isn’t the right fit, we strive to support writers by offering insight, direction, and connections - because we believe the industry is stronger when more voices are championed and more doors are opened.

  • At Seventh Agency, our goal is to help facilitate the representation and success of as many writers as possible, so that the books on our shelves and bestseller lists reflect the full vibrancy, diversity, and complexity of the world we live in. Through captivating stories and galvanising narratives, we believe literature has the power not only to entertain, but to reshape how we see one another - and the future we are building together.

    We're passionate and dedicated to continually expanding opportunities for marginalised writers.
