Amandeep Singh
Agent
Amandeep Singh is an agent at TGLA. She began her career at Hamish
Hamilton before working at innovative digital publisher Canelo. Keen to
work even more closely with authors, she became an assistant at The
Blair Partnership before joining Ebury, HarperCollins and Penguin Press,
where she collaborated on books by Greta Thunberg, Grace Dent and
Nikita Gill. She published only debut authors during her time at
HarperCollins: Taz Alam, Dr Vanita Rattan, Oloni and Bretman Rock. Her
passion for championing debuts, amplifying underrepresented voices and
working in-depth editorially led her back to agenting. She hopes to work
with writers who enjoy collaboration; as a French and Italian (and
rusty Punjabi) speaker, she is also interested in voices and topics that
cross borders.
“I love being challenged, surprised, entertained and informed – by books that change how we see the world and ourselves.”
Genres I Like
Authors I Like
Literary fiction; narrative non-fiction; memoir; essay; poetry; politics; cookery and food writing.
In fiction I am looking for an unforgettable voice and an emotional connection; I love both heart-wrenching and humorous stories. In non-fiction, I am excited by experts in their fields, original critique and unique lived experiences.
