Working With Writers

Supernova Press is a traditional publisher which means an author like you sends us your work, and if we choose to partner with you, we work to publish the novel at no cost to you. (You even get royalties.) But the publishing industry seems to focus less on what works for authors, and more on what works for them. We’re changing that. As an author-focused company, we’re doing things differently. Join us!

In standard submissions to bigger companies, it often feels like you’re at the mercy of huge, overly-critical giants who don’t care enough to email back. Those days are over. When you submit to Supernova Press, know that we’re working for you, not the other way around, and our goal is to turn writers into authors.

Oh, and we’ve also overhauled our submissions process so that you can spend more time writing and less time worrying about your CV and chapter synopses. Take a look!

A Perfect Fit

We’re looking to work with authors who write high-concept fiction that would be described as “out-of-this-world, super unique, and never-before-thought-of.” Hopefully, your story forces us to feel something; whether it be, joy, fear, loathing, or sadness; and the first thought we have is, “Why didn’t I write this first?” If your novel makes us think about something, and is so powerful that we want to discuss it with someone, it’s a perfect fit. Send it to us! We don’t publish picture books, self-help books, Christian fiction, or solely erotic novels. We publish non-fiction sparingly, and memoirs even more sparingly, but send them to us anyway.

How Do You Get Your Story To Us?

Almost every other publisher is going to want plot synopses, marketing plans, ONLY the first 20 pages, a CV, and relevant experience. But we understand that emerging authors and writers who are new to the publishing community might just give up. We we don’t want that. So we’ve streamlined our submission process to make it as simple as possible for you to get us your stories.

1. Email us anything you have, in any format, to submissions@supernovapress.com. You can even mail it to us at our physical address if you’re feeling fancy. Or, if you’re feeling really fancy we accept mail sent via carrier pigeon or through telepathy.
