Mission Statement / Editorial Focus
Specializing in Books by Authors from the Heartland Since 2014 Meadowlark Books is an independent publisher, born of a desire to produce high-quality books for print and electronic delivery. Our goal is to create a network and system of support for today’s independent author. Our service is to ensure that the stories we love and believe in are presented to readers in a manner that enhances an author’s work. We are home to 105 Meadowlark Reader: A Kansas Journal of Creative Nonfiction. We are home of the Birdy Poetry Prize.
Accepts Unsolicited Submissions
Yes
Do You Have Any Cover Letter Advice?
Show me that you are familiar with our press and how your book fits.
Do You Have A Favorite Unsolicited Submission Discovery Or Anecdote?
I love a submission that makes me forget I am reading through the slush pile. When I print it out, carry the manuscript to bed with me and stay up reading all night, that's the sign of a good book.
Who Is Your Ideal Reader?
We are an eclectic press, and so our ideal reader varies from book to book.
