We enjoy reading all genres of fiction and nonfiction.
We do not, however, read poetry or really sick stuff.

All manuscripts must be submitted electronically. You may paste your text within the body of an email (up to 10,000 words) or send it as a .pdf, .doc, .docx or .rtf. We do not accept any other formats.

All book Proofreads are subject to approval. Please submit the first chapter for a free evaluation. Why?

At the top of your submission, please provide:
   ~ your name
   ~ mailing address
   ~ email address
   ~ genre 
   ~ word count  
   ~ payment method (PayPal, check or money order) 

Your submission must have a title.

Font should be black 12-pt. Arial, Courier or Times Roman, double-spaced.

Separate scenes with your favorite symbol. We don't care which one you use, as long as it clearly signifies a break.  

Confirm we've received your entire submission by including the words: The End.

Subject: insert your project and the service you desire. (Example: Novel Opinion or Novel Proofread or Short Story Opinion, etc.)  

You are now ready to submit your work.
(If clicking this link doesn't automatically open your email, send your work to
manuscripts--at--readingwriters.com AFTER you've replaced the --at-- with the @ sign.)

We confirm receipt of every manuscript. If you haven't received a confirmation within 24 hours, we haven't received yours. Please re-send.

We don't, however, acknowledge spam-blocking filters that require us to fill out a form to join an approved list. If you use such an address, you won't receive emails from us.
