Open Call for Manuscript Submissions – Vee Press
Vee Press is accepting submissions for our upcoming e-book line. We
are actively seeking talented writers who have completed a novel-
length manuscript or have written more than 10 chapters of an ongoing
work. Writers who are willing to work with us through our fast-paced
publishing cycle are especially welcome.
We are considering both popular non-fiction and fiction titles on any
topic, with a great preference for plots or subjects that concern the
Philippines and its culture. Both non-professional and established
authors are welcome, but any work submitted to us must not have been
previously published, including self-publishing, in print or online.
Self-published works are considered published.
We are looking for:
Manuscripts with a projected length of between 60,000 and 75,000
words. We are currently not considering works that go above the
maximum word count, but we will consider pitches for potential series.
A fresh premise that can be conveyed as a paragraph-length (5
sentences maximum) pitch.
Non-fiction that takes a popular (mainstream, non-academic)
approach on their subject matter.
For fiction, works in any genre that mix engaging storytelling
with exciting plot and compelling characters.
Further guidelines:
Please make sure the copyright and publishing rights are not owned
by other parties. Unpublished manuscripts optioned by companies or
organizations are not up for consideration.
Works that are based on material (television, literature, etc.)
that have not entered public domain are not accepted.
If excerpts of the work have been previously published, we ask the
authors to include this information upon submission.
Submission Requirements:
Email the complete manuscript and a full synopsis (beginning to
end) as Microsoft Word (*.doc) attachments to
kaut...@vibalfoundation.org. The manuscript and synopsis should be
two separate files. Please make sure that the file extension is not
*.docx or any other variation.
The manuscript should be set in either 12 point Courier New or 14
point Times New Roman, with double-spaced lines. Margins should be set
at 1 inch on all sides. Please do not include page numbers, headers or
footers in your manuscript.
In the body of your email include a brief description of the
novel, estimated word count, and your publishing history (if any) such
as previous books, awards, and quotes from other authors or reviews.
Include the working title and your name in the email’s subject
line.
Authors who intend to publish using a pseudonym are still required
to furnish us with the information mentioned above.
For more inquiries, contact Kristel Autencio at
kaut...@vibalfoundation.org or call the Vibal Foundation office at
