Conditions of Acceptance and step-by-step guide to getting published

We are happy to look at all manuscripts that are submitted to us and will give an initial critique free of charge. After this we will give our recommendations to the authors as to where we feel they might go with their work.

  • Please submit the first three chapters and a synopsis in an MSWord or Rich Text format document. The manuscript should be left-aligned with double-spacing and a header showing the name of the author, the title of the book, and the page number. It is usual to use Times New Roman 12 font. The front cover page should indicate the number of words.

  • If your book contains graphics or photographs that comprise large files, please put the whole file onto a disk and post it to us.
  • Our submission form should accompany the submission, completed as fully as possible.
  • We do not accept work that we consider to be pornographic, offensive or of an overtly religious or bigoted nature.
  • Where an author’s work is not of a sufficiently high standard, we do not offer false hope or ‘lead them up the garden path’ – we pride ourselves on giving an honest, constructive critique.

The following chart shows, briefly, the steps the writer’s manuscript may take:
