There is also a free ‘manuscript checker’ which apparently can instantly score your book to test if it is ready for publication – the closer you get to zero, the better! Take a look at these details on the site to familiarise yourself with the process.

Full submission details at The other indie that caught my eye this month is Ghostly Publishing which has been founded by a paranormal investigator, no less! The premise gets even more intriguing as the submission process involves peer review on the site, so you need to register then upload your submission – first three chapters and synopsis – rather than emailing or posting it. If accepted your book will be placed on a longlist for possible publication.

If you’re Scottish too that will help! You should send three chapters and a short synopsis by email and they aim to reply within 6 weeks.

So let’s make 2017 the year you get published!Ī couple of interesting indie publishers featured in Writing Magazine this month.įirst is Fledgling Press, a Scottish company that focuses on debut authors writing a variety of fiction including YA. Alternatively if you have something that keeps being rejected and are wondering why, perhaps I can help? I have adjusted the prices slightly as the feedback I am giving is a lot longer than originally planned, but I hope you’ll agree it’s still excellent value for money and I have had some lovely comments from my first customers.įinally as usual I will be looking out for new writing opportunities and reporting back from any useful writing events I attend. I will also be continuing to offer my new critique service, giving you the chance to get an extra pair of eyes on your manuscript before sending it off into the big wide world. I’ll be deleting any markets that no longer look at unagented work or, in the case of new markets, haven’t developed as promised – but don’t worry, there’ll be a few new opportunities going in too.

I will shortly be working through and updating both my list of publishers accepting unsolicited manuscripts and my list of UK children’s agents, making sure that you get the correct information you need to submit. Happy New Year readers – I hope you enjoyed your festivities and are raring to go with your new year’s writing resolutions.
