We’re particularly interested in hearing from UK based authors of who write mystery, crime, adventure, science fiction and historical fiction.
What we love:
You’ll be the sort of writer who writes brilliantly but doesn’t necessarily conform to a single commercial genre. Perhaps your influences are literary, or perhaps your interests span genres.
We’re an independent publisher operating on a collaborative basis. This means that the author shares some of the costs of getting their work into print but in all other ways we are comparable to mainstream publishing. We’ve found that this is the best way of ensuring that our authors are able to take an active part in the publishing process while also moving forwards with the confidence that comes from knowing you have a publisher representing your work. We’re definitely not a one-size-fits-all publisher!
We particularly enjoy literary, subtle romance, biographical fiction, light thrillers, crime and mystery (but not true crime or brutal crime), historical fiction, Young Adult, magical realism, fantasy, novellas and short story collections.
Ideally your work (or collected stories) will be between 30,000 and 90,000 words. These are only guidelines and we’re very happy to consider work of all genres and lengths. Each submission will be considered as the individual it deserves to be.
Our submission process is simple. Please send us a short introductory email telling us about yourself and your work. Also include the full manuscript, ideally in a Word document or .pages file.
Please get in touch.
