We specialize in regional books, with an emphasis on nonfiction categories such as history, travel, folklore, and biography. We publish only one or two works of fiction each year. Fiction submitted to us should have some connection with the Southeast. We do not publish children’s books, poetry, or category fiction such as romances, science fiction, or spy thrillers. We do not publish collections of short stories, essays, or newspaper columns. To gain a better understanding of our publishing program, please review our title list.
When submitting a proposal, please remember that it may take up to two months for the editors to review it. Blair has an acquisitions committee, which includes several staff members.
