Submission Guidelines
We charge a £250 assessment fee to read your manuscript and provide detailed, professional feedback. This assessment will confirm whether the work is suitable for publication and, if so, what editorial development it will require.
When submitting, please include a synopsis.
Please note: we do not offer traditional publishing contracts unless an author has an established readership, proven book sales, or a significant and relevant social media following as an author or public figure.
All submissions must include a covering letter and the manuscript. The covering letter should clearly state
* The title of the work
* A brief description of the book
* An author biography
Submissions that do not include both a description of the work and an author bio will not be read.
Should we request one, printed manuscripts should be submitted on A4 paper, single-sided, using Arial font, size 12, double-spaced, with clear margins.
Manuscripts must be thoroughly proofread before submission.
If you have been previously published, please list your titles in your covering letter.
Please ensure a valid email address is provided so we can respond. We will always confirm our decision and provide constructive feedback.
If your manuscript is under consideration by other publishers, please let us know. Do not submit more than one manuscript at a time unless we have specifically requested additional work.
Important: if you have access to specific audiences, markets, media exposure, or promotional opportunities relevant to your book, include this information in your covering letter. This can strengthen your submission.
