Picture books: Story text need only be presented in a typed and double-spaced manuscript. Given this format, most picture book manuscripts should be less than eight pages.

Other formats—such as storyboards, dummy books, layout suggestions, and illustration ideas—are unnecessary. Please do not include them unless you are a professional artist.

Illustrations are not needed. When we publish a manuscript, we prefer to choose an artist whose style we feel best complements the story.

Novels: We prefer that you send a query letter with three sample chapters first. We publish very few novels, so please bear in mind that the competition is particularly fierce. At this time, we are not seeking manuscripts or writers for the Boxcar Children® Mysteries series.

Prometheus accepts submissions from both authors and literary agents. Before sending any materials, it is always best to submit a letter of inquiry that introduces the topic; briefly outlines the author's project; and discusses relevant competing works, the potential market, the availability of the complete manuscript (or its likely completion date), and the manuscript's (tentative) length. A copy of the author's vita/resume with publishing history should accompany your inquiry.

Letters of inquiry submitted via e-mail are accepted provided there are no attached files. We do not accept e-mailed proposals. All proposals must be sent via regular mail. Please allow 4 weeks for review of an inquiry, 6 to 8 weeks for review of a proposal, and 10 to 14 weeks for review of partial or complete manuscripts.

E-mail submissions only.

Your query should include a brief (up to 1 page) synopsis of the book in the body of the email, along with the genre(s) you believe best fits your book, and a brief bio of your writing credits (if any).

Attach the first 1-3 chapters of your book via attached mail in Word (.doc or .rtf) format ONLY. Any other formats will automatically disqualify your submission, though you are welcome to resubmit with the right attachment file. DO NOT SEND A DIFFERENT FILE FOR EACH CHAPTER - ZIP FILES ARE NO LONGER ACCEPTED. Label the file using title of the book, abbreviated, if necessary. Be sure to include your name and email address on the first page of the attached file so you can more easily be contacted. If we like your work, we will ask you to send the entire manusript via attached mail, along with the description, your professional bio, an author pic (if you have one) and the cover (again, if you have one) and any reviews.

You must have completed the work you're sending us or have a solid completion date at the time you send in your query. The only exception would be a series; only the first in the series must be completed at the time of submission, but a tentative schedule for completion of the next in the series will be expected. They do accept queries inquiring if a certain type of work is suitable for publication with us.

Make sure your manuscript is edited and polished to a highly professional standard. A manuscript full of errors is a mark of the amateur and will be rejected out-of-hand.SynergEbooks also reserves the right to drop any title that needs more than the basic line editing during the publication process.

- When you send your submission in .doc or .rtf format, DON't use fancy formats (Times New Roman or Arial font preferred). Submit the manuscript as ONE document, not a separate file for each chapter or section. OUTLINES ARE NOT NECESSARY.

interested in: Genres include Fiction, Nonfiction, Romance, Young Adults, Fantasy, Science Fiction, Poetry, Humor, Mystery/Suspense, Inspiration, Cookbooks, Self-Help/Reference, Suspense, Business, True Crime, New Age, Native American, and an ever-expanding Children's section.
