Submission Guidelines for Book Proposals

Thank you for your interest in eFishingBooks.com. We welcome submissions appropriate to our publishing list.

When submitting a book proposal, please include the following:

1. A brief synopsis of the proposed work.

2. A definition of the book's projected target audience/market and an analysis of competing titles, if any. (You can research competing titles in Books in Print.) Who is the book for, and why is it better than what is already on the bookshelves?

3. A table of contents or outline of the entire book, plus a sample chapter to give us a sense of your writing style.

4. A biographical statement of your credentials. This statement should explain why you are particularly qualified to undertake the proposed project.

5. A self-addressed, stamped envelope large enough to return submitted materials. If this is not enclosed, we will not return your materials. Never send the only copy of anything!

Please note:

  • Because we receive so many proposals, we cannot critique or give advice about your manuscript
  • For fastest response time, please indicate that you would like a response via email
