Greene & Heaton open office in Second Life

Founded in 1963 by the late Elaine Greene, Greene & Heaton Ltd is a medium-sized literary agency with a diverse range of clients. These include novelists, travel writers, scientists, biographers, historians and children's writers/illustrators, each of them prominent in their field.

Writers such as Michael Frayn, P.D. James and William Shawcross have been clients of the agency since its beginning, while a broad range of contemporary writers and rising literary stars have joined their ranks since - Mark Barrowcliffe, Bill Bryson, Hugh Fearnley-Whittingstall, C.J. Sansom, Marcus du Sautoy and Sarah Waters, to name just a few.

The agency's particular strength lies in the mix between the literary and the commercial, between fiction and non-fiction, and between the traditional and the modern.
