Manuscript Submission Guidelines

Square One Publishers specializes in adult nonfiction books. We look for interesting manuscript proposals that have a fresh and/or different point of view by authors who truly know their topic. Our books provide information that is designed to meet the needs of specific audiences.

Currently, we are interested in receiving manuscript proposals for the following categories :

When submitting your manuscript proposal, please include the following items:

• A cover letter explaining the concept of your book, why you wrote it, and its intended audience.
• A detailed table of contents.
• A brief overview of the book.
• Biographical information about you and any coauthors or illustrators.
• A self-addressed stamped envelope (SASE).

Please send your manuscript proposal to:

ATT: Acquisitions Editor
Square One Publishers, Inc.
115 Herricks Road
Garden City Park, NY 11040

Please do not fax manuscript proposals unless specifically requested. Thank you.

* * If you wish to have your material returned along with our response, please include an appropriate-sized SASE with adequate postage.

If you would like our response only, enclose a self-addressed stamped business-sized envelope. Our average response time to manuscript proposals is four to six weeks when the appropriate return envelope is provided.
