Submission Guidelines

---

We are currently accepting proposals for both fiction and non-fiction work. 

We do not publish poetry (unless it is integral to a larger work,) political non-fiction, graphic sexual or violent content, or manifestos. 

We are especially interested in sci-fi and fantasy adventures in the tradition of H.G. Wells, Jules Verne, Sir H. Rider Haggard, and Robert E. Howard.  We would love to get a proposal for exciting new variations on the "inner earth" exploration, lost worlds, etc.  

Also seeking compilations of interesting/unusual/arcane folklore from rural America (the stories your grandparents told you,) particularly regarding cryptozoological encounters, lost treasure, and interesting characters.  

We are currently accepting proposals by both email and post. To submit a proposal, please send the following:  

1. Your name*, mailing address, and email address

2. The working title of your project 

3. A two-paragraph synopsis of your story, and three excerpts or examples from the manuscript 

4. Please indicate whether you will be including photographs, diagrams, or illustrations

5. The inspiration for your project

6.  Description of your primary or target audience (Who are you writing for?)

Anything sent by mail (hard copy) will not be returned unless a self-addressed envelope with adequate postage is provided.  Please be assured that we will give your proposal serious consideration. We know long response times are discouraging, so we will try to respond as quickly as possible. 

Please send proposals to strangemoonpress@gmail.com or Strange Moon Press LLC, 10 Benning St., Suite 160-168, West Lebanon NH 03784.

* We do not consider work that is submitted under a pseudonym (“pen name.”) When sending a proposal, please include your real name even if you wish for the manuscript to be published under a pseudonym.   We are happy to allow a pen name for the published work, but we need your legal name to get started!
