OnyxHawke's mission is to find a great group of authors of science fiction and fantasy and help them get the treatment they deserve.

Send an email with an RTF attachment of the whole book. All non fiction books must include at time of submission:
- Educational credentials.
- Glossary of terms and acronyms.
- Must be referenced. All books submitted with only a list of sources and no foot/end notes or other in text references will be rejected as plagiarism.
- Must have as little as possible in the way of references from any of the contributors.
- Must include in a separate file the complete contact information for all contributors and include their educational credentials and publishing credits.
- No "pop psychology" or self help books.
- There really is a line between history and political science, please keep your opinions out of the main text of the history books.
- Desired sales positioning and age group if applicable: general non fiction, text book, other.

Send the whole novel. Send it only in Rich Text Format (RTF). Send only one novel at a time, if I like it I'll ask for more. Send a clean file that was spell checked using an American English spell checker and has been polished to the point you would submit it to a publisher.

Include on the first page of the file your name, your address, your email address (at least one) and your phone number. Format your subject line: Title of Novel - Your Name - Genre - Any special code from the FAQ or given to you. Include a brief synopsis of the plot in the email, no more than four single spaced pages.

List the minimum length for consideration of any major publisher as listed on the SFWA "Qualifying Novel Venues" at the bottom of your cover letter, with the name of the publisher. For example "Forsaken Future Books 95,000 words". Format your file name with "First initial Last name Title".
