What We Are Seeking:
As a full service publisher we are willing to consider all genre fiction including romance, western, drama, comedy, horror and sci-fi, as well as cookbooks, poetry collections, and beyond. Simply send us an e-mail with your idea. Do not send us the complete work. A query letter with your idea, a breakdown of that idea, and any writing history you want to share. If we are interested we will request the first 30 pages.
We are particularly interested in authors who can enter and create a tale set in the Pulp Gothic world created by Kosh and Wales. A world where real history blends fictional characters. A story where original Gothic literature blends with its cinematic adaptation. A place Kosh and Wales call the Backlot. Bring us tales of Werewolves, Jekyll and Hyde, Mummies, Frankenstein like creations, or Dracula like vampires, blended with cinematic versions of Universal and Hammer from the 1930s to the 1950s and by German impressionists of the silent era. We share a deep love for the silver screen horror movies before and beyond. We recommend that you read both Legacy of Frankenstein and Beyond Frankenstein to understand what that is. If you are up to the task, we want to hear from you. If you are truly serious, samples of both works can be provided to demonstrate the vibe we are searching for.
What We Are Not Interested In:
Unsolicited manuscripts or subject matters dealing with the abuse of children, rape fantasies, straight up porn, or work containing full color artwork. Any such items sent will be immediately rejected.
Formant:
All manuscripts and samples need to be in 12pt Times New Roman and formatted in the classic style, as demonstrated by William Shunn here: Classic Manuscript Format | William Shunn. All manuscripts must be formatted in doc, docx, or compatible. Submissions in WordPad, NotePad, PDF or any other formats, will automatically be rejected.
What We Provide:
Basic editing only. Full professional cover as well as other promotional artwork, created by Jeffrey Kosh. Placement on Amazon and promotion throughout social media.
Payments:
We pay on a royalty split program where the author receives 40% of all royalties for the duration of the contract. The Contract covers first print, eBook and audio versions rights for 2 years from date of signed contract. After that either party can end the contract with a 30 Day notice to the other, otherwise the contract continues to automatically renew bi-annually and we continue to do business with each other.
