We do wish to welcome unsolicited manuscripts, however due to the size of our business we would have to feel it was something we would be crazy to miss before we could publish it. A lot more work has to go into editing, publishing and marketing a novel and therefore if you are rejected this does not mean that your manuscript is not special so please continue to submit as there are places out there with enormous budgets who may be looking for someone just like you. If you would like us to consider your novel you should submit your synopsis, three chapters and an author bio (approx 50 words) to rebelbooks@hotmail.com and we will endeavour to get back to you within six to eight weeks.* *Due to the large number of unsolicited manuscripts we have received we will not be able to respond to everyone who has submitted work to us within the 6-8 week deadline originally estimated. Please bear with us we are currently reading through your submissions and will get back to you as quickly as possible.
ILLUSTRATORS
Rebel Books LLP is looking for new illustrators and artists to work with on future book covers and projects. Payment would be based on a percentage of the royalties in the first instance. We are looking for unpublished and up and coming illustrators and artists and if you would like us to consider your work please send examples as an attachment to: rebelbooks@hotmail.com together with a brief summary of any experience and qualifications to date. Our choices will be made purely on how your illustrations fit with our vision for future titles and not on your level of experience.
