Information for Authors

At this time, Bundle Press does not require submission or reading fees.

Current open calls are listed above.

Email us at contact [at] bundlepress [dot] org with questions and queries.

If you are simultaneously submitting work, then you should let us know immediately if it is accepted elsewhere.

For all submissions, we request a one- to three-sentence bio. For larger projects, we request a brief cover letter that describes the work and introduces the creator, including direction to anything you’ve published before, where we might find you on social media, and contact information.

For book projects, we encourage you to submit a brief marketing plan outlining your network, promotional experience and capacity, and ideas for positioning the work.

We consider publishing a collaboration and work with authors on edits and marketing.
We pay 15-20% of net receipts to the author as royalties, as well as 5 free copies and the option to buy additional books at printer's costs. Projects may receive an advance, depending on the contract.
