Our New Novels Competition has a double purpose:

First, it gets you the opportunity to have your manuscript looked at with a view to getting it published (guaranteed publication if it's one of the best - you don't even have to be placed!), and second it brings in a good variety of books for us to consider including in our launch: win-win!

Obviously, this manuscript must never have been published in any form, and if it becomes published during the course of the competition it is immediately no longer eligible to win either a prize or publication contract. This is to ensure no conflict of rights and is in both your interest and ours, as well as those of your new publisher.

Should you be offered a publication contract during the course of this competition, you will be released by us from any obligations - we don't want the competition to stand in the way of your opportunities! :-)

Please ensure that you put enough postage on your envelopes; we will refuse mail for which we have to pay a surcharge. Thank you. :-)

* Don't use staples!

* Don't under-stamp your envelopes!

* Don't send us romance manuscripts that are clearly only secular; this imprint is aimed at Christian based works - even if the Christian references are only slight, the tone should satisfy a Christian audience.

* If you'd like to GET to know the genre, read several of this type of book such as these examples.
