How to Submit Your Manuscript or Proposal:

We prefer that you send an e-mail query initially. If your concept fits within our parameters, please provide a succinct description of your proposal and how your concept is unique compared to other resources in the market. Please include a brief explanation of your ministry experience and publishing history, if any. Send query to our Director of Book Publishing, Dr. Sherman Tribble: stribble@sspbnbc.com.

If a publisher contacts you and requests a manuscript, you may then send a submission by REGULAR mail. Do not submit your work via fax or e-mail. We cannot review your proposal over the phone.

What to Include in Your Submission:

  •  A one-page cover letter with your name, address, daytime telephone number, e-mail address, and a brief summary of your manuscript—including the theme, purpose, age group, and genre.
  • Some information regarding your ministry experience; your connections to the people, groups, and organizations to whom this concept appeals; your publishing history; and author platform.
  • If your manuscript is under 1,500 words: a typed, double-spaced copy of your manuscript.
  • If your manuscript is over 1500 words: a typed, double-spaced sample of your manuscript (an introduction and one or two well-written chapters—not to exceed 3,500 words), along with a summary of remaining chapters or material.
  • A self-addressed, stamped envelope (SASE) sufficient for the publisher’s response and the return of your manuscript. (*If you do not request for your manuscript to be returned, we will recycle your manuscript pages.)

*Unless you are a professional illustrator, it is not necessary—or even advisable—to include any illustration with your proposal. Please Do NOT send original artwork.
