Additional info
"We accept submissions in English (translations and bi-lingual manuscripts are allowed), from authors living at least part of the year in North America. While we appreciate the wealth of global literature, as a small press with very limited marketing resources we do not feel that we can serve the needs of authors elsewhere in the world."
We are NOT currently reading unsolicited submissions, while we catch up on the many exciting new titles currently in our queue. We anticipate resuming open reading on September 1, 2022, but check back here periodically for updates on this schedule.
Broadstone Books is always looking for exciting new writers to add to our roster. We are willing to consider work in most genres, including poetry, fiction, and non-fiction, though be advised we do not publish children's literature, self-help, religion and spirituality, erotica, or technical/professional subject matter.
You may submit either a sample or your full manuscript for consideration; if the former, please send 10 to 12 pages of representative poetry, or a single story or chapter of prose, and we will let you know if we would like to read your full work.
For samples we try to respond within two months. For full-length manuscripts we can take three months or longer to respond.
