Thank you for inquiring about our manuscript guidelines for new works.  We receive thousands of unsolicited submissions each year. To save us both time, paper, and postage we ask that you first submit a query letter, instead of the whole manuscript, along with an outline of your work, your assessment of the target audience, and a sufficient sample of your writing style for our acquisitions staff to determine if your work fits within our editorial policy. From there, we can decide whether we need to request a complete manuscript for further review.

If you want a response from us either way, please send your query along with a SASE or a working e-mail address. We cannot be responsible for returning manuscripts due to the large quantity we receive, but we make every effort to do so with what you include for that purpose. 

We are actively reviewing manuscripts again and we are eager to find manuscripts we can be excited about and get behind. Unagented and first time authors, simultaneous and email submissions are all okay. We encourage you to submit your work for consideration at this time:

• it may be considered (budget allowing) for publication by Perron Press
• we may offer subsidy publishing 
• or we can assist you with the details of self-publishing
