Currently Grayson Books is not accepting unsolicited manuscripts. Occasionally books are published as a cooperative venture between author and publisher. These are books that fit in with the themes and general excellence associated with our small press. In the cooperative publishing arrangement, the author pays many of the publishing expenses, the publisher carries the project through to completion, helps set up distribution paths, and handles a limited amount of promotion. The author receives some of the books and a very significant portion of the profits. If you have an idea for such
a book to be published cooperatively, send a proposal including your qualifications and publication credits, expected audience and promotion ideas, and a sample of 6-10 pages of the manuscript.
You will receive specific feedback on your proposal within two months. If your proposal seems promising, we will ask for more details and a complete manuscript so we can give it more thorough evaluation. No cooperative publishing venture will go into effect until/unless both author and publisher agree on the details.
