PLEASE READ THESE GUIDELINES IN DETAIL BEFORE SUBMITTING

We are currently accepting book-length submissions of fiction and creative non-fiction. At this time (Spring 2024) we are particularly excited to receive novels, including verse novels.

First-time authors are encouraged to submit. 

Genre fiction such as sci-fi, mysteries, romance, horror, fantasy, and alternative history are all extremely welcome.

We are unfortunately unable to consider graphic novels, comics, or YA/kidlit.

We do not accept unsolicited poetry manuscripts—poetry is considered on an invitation-only basis.

There are no restrictions on the identities of authors we consider—LittlePuss Press submissions are open to all.

We are willing to consider incomplete manuscripts in their initial stages, particularly if they demonstrate clarity of purpose, awareness of their audience, and/or a sense of humor. If this applies to you, please submit at least 30 pages (double-spaced) of your material.

Simultaneous submissions are fine. Kindly let us know if your work is accepted elsewhere during the time we consider your manuscript.

We are currently responding to all submissions within 6 months, and we are grateful for your patience.

Please keep in mind that as we are a very small publisher, we can only publish a very small number of manuscripts.

LASTLY: We unfortunately cannot provide feedback to rejected manuscripts.! This is a fact we regret in particular but alas it is so.

Thank you for considering LittlePuss Press as a potential home for your work.
