What we're looking for . . .

We publish a wide variety of nonfiction topics, technical guides, and textbooks. Specifically, we are looking for specialized manuscripts written by authors who are established in their field, and who make their living through the communication of those ideas to others. The ideal manuscript will be written for an identifiable and easily reachable audience. It should be complete and proofread for errors in language, form and content. Since we can only publish a limited number of manuscripts, when deciding between two manuscripts we will look at the following criteria:

* Usefulness

* Originality

* Writing quality

* Manuscript preparation

* Size and reachability of audience

* Promotional opportunities of the author


The first step is to complete our Book Proposal form to tell us about your work. A representative will contact you within about a week with feedback regarding your proposal. If it looks like you have what we're looking for we'll ask to see your manuscript.
