There is no minimum length of the books we accept for publishing; maximum – up to 350 pages (if longer book is desired – please explain/ justify). Please submit the book proposal, which would include the reasons of your writing, the audience (who will benefit from reading it), the “competitors” (similar books, if any), and the synopsis of the chapters you plan to have essay sample. Of course, you should include a short bio and a preliminary timeline re: when your manuscript will be finalized.
We also require a sample of your writing (total of 3 chapters of your choice), which could include the intro chapter and/or the foreword. Submissions can be done electronically – as a Word document attachment (in .doc or .doxc.)
