Dzanc Books - submissions and contest

Do you have a short story collection you hope to publish? Here's a market looking for your book.

SUBMISSIONS to Dzanc Books PLUS a Short Story Collection contest (although they charge a reading fee).

Dzanc Books is looking for literary fiction that takes chances and does so with great writing. We do not mind books that do not fill a marketing niche. We are looking for absolutely fantastic works to fill those slots. It really is all about the writing to us.

If you believe you have a novel that meets what we are looking for, please feel free to submit a portion of your manuscript to us.

1) If submitting a novel, or literary nonfiction, please attach the first 1 or 2 chapters (no more than 35 pages) in MS Word format, and
2) If submitting a story collection, please see the Short Story Collection
contest guidelines.
3) Please note that due to an increased number of incoming manuscripts, it
might take up to five or six months to respond.

Thank you for your interest in publishing with Dzanc Books.We are currently in the process of working on our online submission system. In the meantime, if you would like to submit your manuscript, please email submit@dzancbooks. org with a cover letter and up to 2 chapters of your novel or 2 stories of your collection.
