Evaluation - required for all submissions: $100
All submissions will be evaluated by our award-winning editors.
Manuscripts will be evaluated for readiness. If the editors conclude the manuscript is not ready to publish, they will provide you with a one-page evaluation and advise you of your options. Most of the SP Press staff are published authors themselves, and know the angst an author faces in getting a book on the shelf. We share your desire to see your book in print. With your input - and our publishing history and team of professionals - we can transform almost any manuscript into a quality publication.
