Submissions: Currently Closed

Sweet Pea Press first and foremost is in search of engaging stories needing a great home. We do have a small range of genres we prefer, so be sure to familiarize yourself with what we’re looking for. If your text doesn’t fit neatly in one genre, you ca send it in anyway. For length, we’re only searching for full-length novels.

Our primary focus is in the following genres of fiction: YA, Cozy mysteries, fact books, biographies, Historical Fiction, Funny/Satirical Cozy Mysteries.

We do not consider previously published material (yes, this includes self-published anything, anywhere that hit the public) or less than full-length novels.

All queries should go to: submissions (at) sweetpeapresss (dot) com. and begin your subject line with QUERY: (title of the manuscript) (e.g. QUERY: All About Bitcoin).

We like to see well-written, concise letters that include your bio and your relevant writing experience. Feel free to include in the body of the email the first 10 pages so we can get an idea of your writing.

We do not open unsolicited attachments, and those queries will be deleted.

We love all writers, current and prospective. We will respond to each inquiry. You can feel free to check back with us after three months.

If we do request a manuscript, our turnaround time can be a few days to six months, so please be patient. We will also ask you for the dreaded synopsis at this time. We know you’re anxious to hear from us, but we can’t field calls and respond to emails asking what’s going on if we’re taking up our all of our time reading!
