The Andrew Lownie Literary Agency was recommended to us by a popular British writer who had enjoyed Andrew’s representation for many years.
When attending a conference in London in 2018, Andrew kindly agreed to meet with us and discuss our ideas for a book. We greatly appreciated the time he afforded us to pitch our idea – and to our joy he agreed to be our agent.
In a short time, Andrew obtained a book deal for us – and several thereafter. We have not looked back!
As an agent - and as an accomplished writer in his own right – Andrew’s invaluable guidance has helped us make a success of our new vocation as authors. We always appreciate Andrew’s respectful, succinct and super-prompt communications to our correspondence so that we know exactly what to do and how to do it.
