Manuscripts should be sent to ticopublishing@earthlink.net
in a .DOC a
.PDF or a .TXT file attached to an e-mail There are no exceptions to this
policy. If you cannot provide one of these formats, see below on how
to convert your file type into a PDF online. Manuscripts must be double spaced, in 12-point or larger
type.
All pages must be numbered
with the name of your story at the top of each page. You name and complete contact information should appear in
the body of your e-mail and on the first page of your manuscript.
We READ and comment
on all submissions. We
are first (and foremost) looking for well-written, marketable manuscripts.
We are accepting only fiction submissions. We accept only COMPLETED manuscripts as we'll have to read
your whole work before
making a decision. We feel, while major houses just read a synopsis or query to
make a decision, that by reading the entire manuscript, we give your manuscript
all the attention and chance for publication that we can. Your work deserves to
be taken in and considered in whole, not just in a small piece. (Think of
Picasso trying to sell his paintings by only showing the bottom left corner to
a potential buyer.)
We have a team of professional reviewers
who will read and critique your manuscript. If they like it well enough, your
manuscript may go to a 2nd review phase where it's read by an Editor for
possible publication.
NO QUERIES
ARE NECESSARY!
Just
choose one of the two forms of submissions and e-mail us the COMPLETE
manuscript.
We have TWO forms of submissions so read carefully to make sure that you
choose the correct one.
