Clarion Publishing is currently closed to submissions.

Here are a few good rules to follow when submitting a manuscript to us for consideration.

Be sure that you are familiar with the type of work we are currently publishing:

Monico – Fiction (Speculative Fiction. Science Fiction, Fantasy, Horror, Supernatural Fiction, Superhero Fiction, Utopias and Dystopias)

Figure 1 Press - Non-Fiction. We skew towards practical works and articles/shorter works. Please, no memoirs.

Archon Books – Academic Non-Fiction.

If you would like to submit to us, your work should be either emailed or sent via regular post.

By Email

DO: Email us with a query letter and the first ten pages of your book pasted in the body of the email. Our email address is: [email protected] Use standard formatting (Times New Roman, 12 point font).

DON’T: Attach the whole manuscript as a file, no matter the size. Your email will be instantly deleted. No saves, no comebacks.

By Post

DO: Send us a query letter and the first 50 pages (if the total work is smaller – as in the case of articles, that’s fine – send it all). Use standard formatting (Times New Roman, 12 point font). If you have an email address, let us know so we can followup with you should we like what we read. Alternatively, ensure you have a Stamped, Return Address Envelope. Note: If there is not enough postage attached to the envelope, we won’t respond.

DON’T: Send more than 50 pages. We ask for 50 pages because that’s a nice sampler. If you send us more, our gnomes will drown in paper, and that makes us sad. If you think your manuscript is so good that the limit can be ignored – even by a teeny bit – well, you’ve just killed a gnome and the remaining lot are using your tear-streaked manuscript as lining for the coffin. Happy now?

Please note, we do not return manuscripts. Never send us your only copy.

Our address for submissions is:

While we will try to respond as quickly as possible, please expect delays of up to five months.
