Special call for submissions! Send us your novellas! *
Prism has
opened two new lines and our editors are eager to receive your
short stories/novellas.
Diamond Facets.
Pure
Romance, Everlasting Love
Facets will feature romances between 10-30K that fall under the
guidelines of our Diamond romance imprint. Facets should
emphasize a romance that snags the reader’s heart right from the
start and packs an emotional punch. Whether love at first sight
or an old flame found again, a happily-ever-after is a must.
Contemporary, historical, westerns, regencies, and suspense
genres are encouraged.
Inspired Cameos
Romance that
inspires, heart and soul...
Cameos will feature novellas between 10-30K that fall under the
guidelines of our Inspired inspirational romance imprint.
Uplifting, short and sweet, these novellas should always finish
with a happily-after-after. All genres are encouraged,
especially angels, Amish, and historical.
Thank you for your interest in
submitting to Prism. Prism books are never boring and
sometimes step out of the box. If you have written a
manuscript that doesn't quite fit other publisher's
guidelines, we'd love to take a look.
At this time, Prism Book Group is
offering new authors a royalty rate of 40%. If you would
like to review our standard contract, you may email
contact@prismbookgroup.com with your request.
We are currently considering fiction manuscripts in the
following genres:
Diamond (romance)
Inspired
(inspirational romance)
Illuminate
(Christian fiction)
Please click the links above for more specific guidelines on
what we will accept.
Please
note:
-
We have no
interest in reading erotica, erotic romance, or stories
where characters engage in casual sex.
While natural sexual tension
is encouraged in our romances (we want to feel the
emotion the hero and heroine feel for one another) we
have no interest in books that spend pages on the
explicit, physical culmination of those feelings.
-
Stories that
promote atheism, witchcraft or devil-worship.
-
Serious injury, rape, violence portrayed in a positive
light.
-
Hate literature and positive portrayal of negative
stereotypes.
-
Partial works.
Only send your story when it is finished and polished!
Please meet our editors below to
decide who is the right choice to submit to. Also please
carefully review our general guidelines before submitting a
manuscript.
Jacqueline Hopper,
Acquisitions Editor
Jacqueline Hopper never
dreamed of becoming a writer until a teacher read
her poem to her class. That event alone incited
Jacqueline’s interest in the writing realm. However,
it wasn’t until after she began taking courses and
honing her skills that her short and novel-length
stories sold.
Since then, Jacqueline has
participated in critique groups, acted as
ghostwriter, proofreader and copy editor while
continuing to pen her own stories. Her favorite
authors include anyone who can pluck her
heartstrings, reduce her to tears or make her double
over with laughter.
Jacqueline is interested in
fantasy, sci-fi, historical, mystery, humorous and
contemporary romance. Fresh ideas are most
appealing.
Marcy Dyer, Acquisitions Editor
Marcy Dyer
will accept submissions in any genre but prefers those that fit
within Prism's Christian fiction Illuminate imprint: Amish,
Angels, Apocalyptic/Futuristic, Comedy, Contemporary,
Historical, Holiday, Suspense, Western and Women’s Fiction.
If you would like to submit to Marcy, please email her at
mdyer@prismbookgroup.com.
Susan Baganz, Acquisitions Editor
Susan began writing years ago when she
heard God tell her to enter NaNoWriMo (that’s a story in
itself!). She’s been a writing machine ever since, thrilled with
the unveiling of each new story. She’s an avid reader as well
and looks forward to romance, romance, romance: contemporary,
historical (especially Regency), Western, Comedy or Romantic
Suspense. No Amish, please. She likes romances that fit our
Diamand or Inspired lines. Give her a creative happy ending and
she’ll be tickled raspberry. Send your submissions
