Who do I send it to?
Send all queries to: submissions@wcaltd.com
Hilary McMahon and John Pearce are accepting queries by referral only.
Emmy Nordstrom Higdon is currently only accepting non-fiction queries from authors traditionally under-represented in publishing.
Please note that we only accept electronic submissions.
If you believe your query is best suited for a particular agent please include their name in the subject line of your email. Like you, our agents have their own tastes. We encourage you to refer to the agent bios to determine which agent might be the best recipient of your submission. Please do not query more than one agent at the agency simultaneously, and please only submit one work at a time (until we have had a chance to review and respond to your first query).
When will I hear back from WCA?
Thank you for thinking of Westwood Creative Artists! We appreciate the effort you have placed into querying the agency, and in return ask for your patience as we review your submission.
You will receive an automated response when your query has been received in our system. Because we receive an extremely high volume of submissions daily and the ongoing pressures of COVID-19, we regret that we are only able to reply to successful queries at this time.
Please allow up to twelve weeks for our team to consider your submission. If we have not replied within that time, it can be assumed that for one reason or another we have decided against pursuing the project, and we wish you the best in finding alternative representation.
