OUR SUBMISSION WINDOW OPENS 13th January 2025 and will run until 26 January 2025, 18:00 GMT (London). Submissions sent by email or outside of this window will not be considered or responded to.
As a new publisher our aim is to showcase writing by talented new and emerging authors. We also accept submissions by unagented authors.
Submission Package
Please complete the submission form.
You may only submit one manuscript during the submission period.
We do not accepted AI generated work. Any work submitted that is AI generated is against our terms & conditions.
All submissions must be original and unpublished, including not previously in newsletters, self-published and blogs. We will not consider or respond to AI-generated work.
While the reading period is open, all work and identities will be treated with respect. Wild Hunt Books might write about the manuscript period only in positive and vague terms on our social media channels. Your identity will be kept confidential and your manuscript will not be explicitly identified.
You will receive an email confirmation notifying you that it can take up to 12 weeks to receive an outcome on your manuscript after the closing date. Please get in touch after this time has passed if you haven’t heard from us.
If your manuscript has been accepted elsewhere, please notify us so we can further consider it.
Unsuccessful submissions will be deleted 90 days after the reading period.
If we are interested in your manuscript for our list, we will first reach out by email but might want to eventually speak via video chat software like Zoom or Google Meet. This call will always include the Publisher, but might include the marketing assistant. You will be notified of this in advance and everything is kept confidential.
You must be 18 years of age as of 26th January 2025 to submit your work.
Work sent that is homophobic, racist, bigoted, etc. will be ignored and no correspondence will be engaged.

Wild Hunt Books Authors
We seek worldwide volume rights, which are outlined in our contract.
As a new publishing house, we will have a dedicated approach to author care and an executed marketing plan for our books.
We expect our authors to also embrace this approach. It’s not simply the books, it’s the people. Please be prepared to work with the editor on large and in-depth developmental edits, along with being a part of promoting your book.
Authors will receive a contract, royalties and a clearly defined schedule for manuscript due dates. We want you to know who you’re working with and how it’s made. Transparency in publishing should be the normal.
