Be clear and concise, but don't hesitate to demonstrate your passion. Let us know that we're not part of a mass mailing. If you are submitting to other presses, why did we make it on your list?
What Advice Do You Have For First-time Submitters?
Be thorough and realistic when describing your audience goals. No book is for everyone: who is this one for, and why?
Provide a writing sample that you've edited, and that best represents the most important parts of the book.
