MANUSCRIPT SUBMISSIONS
                 From Harvest House Publishers

Does Harvest House Publishers accept manuscript submissions?

Harvest House no longer accepts or reviews any unsolicited queries, proposals, or manuscripts.

However, as a member of the Evangelical Christian Publishers Association, we are pleased to recommend Christian Manuscript Submissions, the primary source for unsolicited manuscripts, at www.ChristianManuscriptSubmission.com. They can also be reached via email at info@christianmanuscriptsubmissions.com. We think you will find this to be a cost–effective way to share your proposal with the member publishers of ECPA.

Another service available is The Writer’s Edge, a manuscript screening service for Christian publishers to review proposals by aspiring writers. You can contact them by mail at PO Box 1266, Wheaton, IL. 60189; by email at info@writersedgeservice.com or look them up on their website located at www.WritersEdgeService.com. Please note that if you choose to post your material on a manuscript review website, it is not necessary to contact us. If we are interested in your project, we will notify you.

Sally Stuart’s book The Christian Writer’s Market Guide (published by Harold Shaw Publishers) is another valuable help when searching for the right publishing house. It also contains a list of literary agents. Visit www.shop.exhibithope.com to purchase a copy.  If you are looking for an editing service, the National Directory of Editors & Writers by Elizabeth Lyon (ISBN #1-59077-069-2) is a great resource with a full listing of freelance editors, proofreaders, ghostwriters, etc. Order through your local bookstore.

Finally, if you’re interested in self–publishing, you might consider WinePress Publishers at www.winepresspub.com, Essence Publishing at www.essencegroup.com, or Xulon Press at www.XulonPress.com. These companies are reputable with high quality standards for their book products.
