Inbound Books Submissions

Inbound Books accepts a limited number of submissions per year from writers whose work aligns with our commitment to strong voice, craft, and collaboration.

At this time, Inbound Books submissions are closed.

When submissions are open, projects that align with our charter are initially reviewed by our editorial screeners. If a manuscript is a potential match, it will be shared for peer review. This process can take up to 15 months. We ask for your patience while we give each project the attention it deserves.

Thank you for considering Inbound Books, and good luck with your submission!

What to Submit:

For submissions, please send a query email that includes the following, all within the body of the email (no attachments):

  • A brief description of your book (1–2 paragraphs)
  • A short author bio
  • A one-page synopsis of the full work (including key plot points and ending)
  • The first three chapters of your manuscript

We do not review attachments. Emails with attachments will not be considered.
