Submissions Guidelines

Dear Author:

 

Thank you for considering New Breed Publishing! You could have chosen any other publisher to trust with your manuscript, so we appreciate you for stopping by to review our submission guidelines.

 

***PLEASE NOTE: NEW BREED PUBLISHING, LLC IS NOW ACCEPTING SUBMISSIONS FOR a WINTER 2015 RELEASE.***

 

**PLEASE READ BEFORE YOU SUBMIT YOUR MANUSCRIPT.**

 

Our reviewing process is a long and lengthy one, and it will help us immensely if our guidelines are followed in order to speed up the process. Please, carefully read the below guidelines for submitting your manuscript. Adherence to these guidelines will ensure your manuscript being reviewed.

 

 

 Please, NO phone or email queries or inquiries. We completely understand your excitement and appreciate your persistence. However, constant calling or emailing does not speed up the process.

 

Poorly unedited submissions WILL NOT be reviewed or considered for publication. Although we have an in-house editor, it is your responsibility AS THE AUTHOR to submit a clean manuscript to a publisher. Please be mindful that what you submit to any publisher represents you. We want the editing process to be an easy job and not tedious. Along with your submission, please include a book marketing and promotions plan. There are no exceptions. Should we choose to publish your book, we want to ensure you understand your responsibility, as an author, to promote your work. Additionally, knowing your ideas will help us help you.
