Submissions


  

Kegedonce Press, a Native owned and operated publishing company based at Neyaashiinigmiing, seeks manuscripts for consideration for inclusion in our future publishing programme. We are looking for poetry, fiction, drama, creative non-fiction, graphic novels, and children's books by Aboriginal writers from Canada.  Writers whose work has never been published are strongly encouraged to submit their work to literary journals and anthologies before seeking publication of a full manuscript.

Please note:

  • We do NOT accept simultaneous submissions *or unsolicited manuscripts.
  • contact us, by surface mail or email (info@kegedonce.com)before sending any manuscript.
  • Unsolicited manuscripts WILL NOT be reviewed.
  • Unsolicited manuscripts will not be returned - they will be recycled.
  • do not send originals of any material.

Please do include:

  • letter of enquiry
  • writing sample (no more than 20 pages)
  • bio (indicating Aboriginal affiliation)
  • list of publications
  • a self-addressed, stamped envelope (if you would like your material returned)

*SIMULTANEOUS SUBMISSIONS


What it means: Submitting a manuscript for consideration to publish to more than one publisher at a time.

Bottom line: Simultaneous submissions = BAD. Don't do it. No publisher we know of accepts simultaneous submissions and most, if not all, of us get extremely annoyed (or even mean!) when authors do it surreptitiously. Now you know.
