These guidelines are designed to streamline the process and save you unnecessary frustration or disappointment!

Firstly and most importantly, please ensure that your proposal falls within the fields we publish in. We are currently only reviewing submissions from the following genres:

• Commercial fiction (especially crime and erotic fiction etc)
• Autobiography
• Self-help

You might like to check out the titles on our website to get a feel for the kind of books we publish. We no longer publish childrens books, poetry or illustrated titles.

When you are satisfied that your proposal is compatible with the our list, please send us the following:

• A synopsis of your proposed publication
• The first three chapters
• Completed Author Questionnaire form, including a brief biography telling us about you.

The Author Questionnaire form must be completed and sent to us with your proposal as it provides us with essential information about you and the nature of your proposal.

The Decision-Making Process

• sales potential
• writing style

Following this assessment we will contact you with our decision and provide feedback on your submission. This may take up to six months so please do not expect an immediate response.

If your proposal is accepted for publication, we will contact you and start the publishing process. Further details can be provided on request.
