A complete proposal, or a manuscript at a stage where editorial work can realistically begin.
How to submit
Please include the following material with your submission. Incomplete submissions may take longer to assess.
Review process
We check scope, completeness and readiness before the manuscript is read in full.
The work is assessed for originality, editorial quality and fit with the list.
We reply with a decision and, where relevant, notes on how the work could be developed.
Accepted projects move to agreement, editorial scheduling and production planning.
