Turquoise Morning Press publishes a variety of book genres, in digital and trade paperback formats. Although we publish a large number of romance and erotic romance novels, we are building our Mystery and Young Adult lists. In 2012, we will release at least one Young Adult title per month. Over the past year we have acquired several memoirs, and we are open to reviewing non-fiction projects.
Fiction lengths range from short story to novel. Short stories range from 5-10,000 words, novellas at 10-35,000 words, and novels no more than 85,000 words. Books under 40,000 words will be published in digital format only. Books over 40,000 words will be published in both print and digital formats. Shorter stories/novellas are occasionally combined into print anthologies.
We sell digital and print through our own web site, www.turquoisemorningpressbookstore.com, as well as through a dozen or more third-party book retailers.
Submissions: We are open to reviewing all genres and we require a full manuscript. Please send to submissions@turquoisemorning.com. Agented submissions directly to Kim Jacobs as kim@turquoisemorning.com.
Full submission requirements are posted on our web site.
