Adult Trade
Please submit all queries and manuscript proposals by mail; because of the volume and time frames to process submissions please submit no more than ten pages of work, and submissions will not be returned. Manuscript proposals should contain an overview of the work, with a list of contents, and representative samples (preferably part of one chapter). Also, a current cv. Please do not send complete manuscripts and send submissions for different books one at a time.
Children’s Books
We are no longer accepting manuscripts for board books, narrative poetry, seasonal stories or books designed to be a series. Nor are we interested in manuscripts written to convey a lesson or a moral. It is recommended that prospective authors visit a library or bookstore to familiarize themselves with the kinds of books we publish.
