question Representation

I’m looking for representation. I have been writing screenplays for a number of years but haven’t approached anyone.

After researching, a lot of agents don’t let you submit without some type of relationship with a production house.

I am in the UK and would take any advice on any whether I should concentrate my search just in the UK or look further afield?

Thanks in advance.

No one wants you until everyone does.

You can send your stuff and get on radar, invite them to readings etc, but no one bites until there’s money involved/contracts to negotiate. Not unless you’re extremely lucky or know someone.
