Press inquiries, manuscript submissions, foreign rights, event bookings, or simply a hello — we read everything. Choose the channel below that fits, or use the form at the bottom of this page.
Each address goes to a real person. We try to reply within five working days, often sooner.
We read on a rolling basis. We are particularly interested in literary fiction, ideas books with a clear point of view, and writing for young readers.
Literary fiction (novels and novellas), serious nonfiction (technology, finance, leadership), and books for young readers. We do not currently take poetry or genre fiction.
A query letter, a one-page synopsis, and the first three chapters (or first 30 pages, whichever is longer). Attach as a single PDF or paste inline.
Email submissions@weekendscriptorium.com with the subject: Submission — [Title] — [Your Name].
We aim to reply within eight weeks. If we are interested in reading more, we will ask for the full manuscript. If we are not, we will say so honestly and briefly.
Welcome — please tell us, and please tell us promptly if your work is accepted elsewhere.
