With FRA… It's personal!
FRA is a leading literary agency, established in 1984 and affiliated to the Authors' Agents Association and the Personal Managers Association. We represent a most loyal list of writers and are particularly adept at selecting publishers by auction, achieving royalty advances of upper five, or even six figures. We are well known too, for selling film/TV rights to our authors' works, in some cases even before we have sold book rights.
We specialise in the following main areas:
- commercial and literary fiction
- non-fiction
- biography and autobiography (especially related to politics, show business and the music business)
- scripts for film and television.
See our Submission section for guidelines — email submissions welcome!
We are delighted to have been chosen as agents to arrange
the publication of

Owen and Andrew Neil of the eminent publisher Peter
