DemmeHouse

DemmeHouse does not accept unsolicited manuscripts. However, we invite first time authors to submit a query letter and a book proposal for consideration. While we do

not require authors to have literary representation before making a submission, we encourage authors to send multiple queries to additional book publishers.  

During the submission process, we do not accept inquiries from authors who wish to know the status of their book proposals. Authors are contacted by mail with a response. For all submissions that accompany a SASE (self-addressed stamped envelope), a response will be sent by letter within 6 - 10 weeks.

A query letter is requested to accompany all proposals. The letter should be precise

and prompt our review of what is written and not how it’s written. A well-written

query letter should capture one’s attention and leave a lasting impression. While an author’s manuscript may be incomplete at the time of making a query submission, a book proposal will guide our decision based on the information provided.

A proposal should include the following:

• A title page
  

• Content overview
  

• Synopsis for each chapter
  

• Target audience
  

• Author's bio
  

• Marketing plan (Include how you plan to help promote your book.)
  

• 3 or 4 random chapters
  

Before making a submission, please be sure to: 

• Include page numbers
  

• Get feedback on your proposal before sending it
  

• Be sure to include your contact information
  

• Include a SASE with sufficient postage
  

We are unable to mail a response or return any materials unless sufficient

postage is provided. 

Our general interests for manuscripts are listed for your convenience.

Book proposals are accepted by postal mail only.
