Submission Calls

Cheyenne Publishing currently has no calls for submissions.

If you have a submission you would like us to consider, please email a query letter to us at webmaster@cheyennepublishing.com.  Please do not send us unsolicited manuscripts.

Some helpful hints regarding queries:

What we are looking for (in other words, what will be given higher consideration):

• Lesbian historical novels
• LGBT young adult novels, preferably historical

What we are not looking for:

• Alternate history, fantasy or anything that is not a fairly accurate
   representation of real life in the past.
• Stories about societies, such as Ancient Greece, where homosexuality
   was considered the norm.
• Erotica — The story can be sexually explicit, as may be intregral
   to the plot, but we don't want stories where eroticism is the main focus.

A few more things we'd like you to know:

• We prefer full novellas and novels with a word count between 50,000 and
   80,000. There are exceptions for longer novels, but this is very rare.
• We do not accept queries for books that have been self-published, that are
   currently in print, or have been published online. This includes anything
   that has had more than 50% of the content posted online.
• Our books are distributed via POD (print-on-demand) through Ingram Book
   Company as well as a few independent distributors including Hotnote
   Books.
