Some notes on submitting manuscripts:
Please note that during the Text Prize judging period, 30 April – 1 June, 2012, our response time for regular manuscript submissions will be delayed. We do try to read and respond to your submissions as quickly as possible, but be advised that during this period it can take up to 4 months to hear back from us.
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
Please only send a copy and keep the original, as we do not return any of the material that we receive
Please note: when we receive your manuscript, you will be automatically added to our newsletter subscriber list. If you don’t wish to be a subscriber, please state that clearly on your submission
Thank you. We look forward to reading your work.
