Call For Manuscript Submissions – Vee Press

Here's a call for local manuscripts between 60k and 75k. An excerpt:

Vee Press is accepting submissions for our upcoming e-book line. We are actively seeking talented writers who have completed a novel-length manuscript or have written more than 10 chapters of an ongoing work. Writers who are willing to work with us through our fast-paced publishing cycle are especially welcome.

We are considering both popular non-fiction and fiction titles on any topic, with a great preference for plots or subjects that concern the Philippines and its culture. Both non-professional and established authors are welcome, but any work submitted to us must not have been previously published, including self-publishing, in print or online. Self-published works are considered published.

We are looking for:

• Manuscripts with a projected length of between 60,000 and 75,000 words. We are currently not considering works that go above the maximum word count, but we will consider pitches for potential series.

• A fresh premise that can be conveyed as a paragraph-length (5 sentences maximum) pitch.

• Non-fiction that takes a popular (mainstream, non-academic) approach on their subject matter.

• For fiction, works in any genre that mix engaging storytelling with exciting plot and compelling characters.

Further guidelines:

• Please make sure the copyright and publishing rights are not owned by other parties. Unpublished manuscripts optioned by companies or organizations are not up for consideration.

• Works that are based on material (television, literature, etc.) that have not entered public domain are not accepted.

• If excerpts of the work have been previously published, we ask the authors to include this information upon submission.
