We regularly consider proposals for new books from new or existing authors. Your main proposal should be succinct — no more than a couple of sheets — and sent as an email attachment to ideas@jawbonepress.com.

Your proposal should tell us what the book is about, how it deals with its subject, what makes it different to and better than any other books on the same subject, and why it will sell.

Your proposal must include a plan of chapters or sections (a list of headings with descriptions), an estimate of text length, information about you and your previous work, and an extract of around 5,000 words from the proposed book.

If we accept your proposal, we will make you an offer. Usually this is an advance (a set amount of money) against royalties (a percentage of the money your book earns).
