Some notes on submitting manuscripts:

  • Text is broadly interested in publishing fiction and non-fiction, including upper primary and young adult. Please note that we are not accepting poetry or play scripts at present

  • Please send manuscripts hard copy (rather than electronically or on disk), single sided, and double spaced. And don’t forget to number the pages

  • Send 3 sample chapters and a brief (1-page) synopsis. If we want to see more we will contact you once we have read the sample

  • Make sure your manuscript has your full contact details, including email address, so we can reach you easily if we need to

  • If you would like your material returned, be sure to include appropriate return postage and packaging. Please don’t send international post coupons, as we are unable to use these

  • We do try to read and respond to your submissions as quickly as possible, but be advised that it can take up to 3 months to hear back from us

Thank you. We look forward to reading your work.
