Red Deer Press is looking for quality writing for children across the ages, from picture books to young adult fiction and non-fiction. Currently we have less interest in picture book manuscripts, and are focusing more on middle grade and young adult fiction.
Submissions may be made by email or through regular mail. Please send only one manuscript at a time. Manuscripts should be legibly typed, double-spaced, with the author’s name and contact information clearly indicated on the cover page. Submissions should always include a self-addressed stamped envelope (SASE) with sufficient Canadian postage to return the manuscript or a reply.
For picture books submit entire text, no query letter. No original art will be accepted.
For fiction, submit query letter - or three sample chapters.
For non-fiction, submit query letter, or sample chapter with outline.
Multiple submissions are acceptable but will not receive priority.
Please allow four to six months for response.
Art Guidelines:
Send samples along with an illustrator bio and a website address, if available.
CDs are acceptable but not preferred.
Please do not email or fax samples.
Please do not send original art, hand-bound books or other bulky submissions or anything
that needs to be returned.
All submissions should be sent to:
