Submission guidelines

Submissions of fiction and non-fiction are welcomed in most genres and categories, for adults and all younger age groups. Send a brief outline of the work and the opening three chapters (10,000 words or so) by email to mail@antonyharwood.com. For fiction, if the author is unpublished, it is best to get in touch when the manuscript is completed. Submissions are not accepted by post, from authors based outside the UK, for plays, screenplays, poetry or 'self-help' non-fiction, or for picture books for children.
