Book Submissions

We take submissions from Authors and portfolios from Illustrators any time of the year. We will endeavour to get back to you within 14 days.
Please keep in mind the following criteria when submitting your story or files:
- Books should have essentially 'Christian' type values (family oriented, good and kind principles)
- We value good story telling - an author's story is more valuable than AI generated content
- If you are an illustrator, we prefer hand drawn (manual or digital) rather than AI generated
- We prioritise any stories which have traditional values and traditional themes
- We are interested in submissions in English and other languages (if a suitable market can be confirmed)
- Picture books should be minimum 32 pages of story where possible
- Chapter books should ideally have minimum 6 chapters
We will work with you to determine services required (editing, illustrating etc)
To make a submission, please provide your written work in .docx or .pptx file format with relevant page breaks and where necessary, illustrator instructions.
Illustrator portfolios to be considered for future projects should provide work in low resolution .pdf in the first instance (provide a wetransfer.com link where the file is greater than 5mb).
Submissions should be emailed to: submission@singingmyrtle.com
