Status

Mercury Retrograde Press is currently closed to unsolicited submissions.

 

Guidelines

Unless you've made other arrangements with the editor requesting your work, email your submission to the address he or she provided. Please include, in the body of the email, a few notes about yourself and your background. Please attach the manuscript of your novel or novella, preferably in MS Word format.

Please send the completed manuscript. No matter how excited we may be by your story concept, we can't effectively evaluate stories that are not yet complete.

 

Terms

Whichever imprint a book is published under, whichever formats it's offered in, Mercury Retrograde Press's terms are the same: we offer writers 25% of profits on each book we publish. We don't offer advances; practically all the proceeds we realize from any given book are used to finance the development of the next.

We don't mind that, because we love the work.
