Greenhouse is a literary agency with a difference. We exclusively represent and manage the careers of authors writing fiction for children, from young chapter-book series through middle grade novels to sophisticated teen fiction.
The name says it all. Greenhouse aims to nurture and grow the talent of exceptional writers. With an emphasis on working creatively with clients, Greenhouse can help writers develop their voice and craft– and then be their advocate and long-term partner through the publishing process and beyond.
We believe young people deserve great fiction. Greenhouse seeks outstandingly talented authors who are ready to put down roots. If you have a passion for excellence and a great story to tell, please get in touch.
I am based in the USA, while Julia Churchill is in London, and you can meet us both through the video below, or on our new video channel. With its transatlantic approach, Greenhouse is in an unequalled position to find the very best market for your work– on whichever continent that may be.
Founded in January 2008, the Greenhouse is a full-service literary agency exclusively for authors of fiction for children and young adults. With offices in Washington DC and London, Greenhouse sells direct to American and British publishers. Foreign rights are handled by Rights People – a specialist children’s rights-selling business with a fast-growing reputation for selling literary properties around the world.
We also have excellent contacts within film and TV, and for sales of other subsidiary rights. Greenhouse and Rights People are both part of Working Partners, which has a highly successful international track record for creating children’s fiction.
