Scribe Publishing Submission Guidelines
First off, congratulations! If you’re reading this, it means you’re about to submit your manuscript for editing. This is a big deal, so give yourself some serious props!
Prepare Your Manuscript
In order to start editing, your manuscript must fit some basic formatting conventions:
- Microsoft Word or Google Docs: The manuscript must be a single Microsoft Word document, with the .docx file extension, or a single Google Doc. If you export from some other format (like Pages), that is fine, but to ensure your book is right, please go through the file and make sure the document has retained all of your formattings. If sharing a Google Doc, please ensure you provide us access by clicking the blue “Share” button in the top right corner of the doc and change the settings so it says “Anyone on the internet with this link can edit.”
- Normal Font & Size: It should be a standard font, black, in 11 or 12 point type.
- Chapter page breaks: We prefer page breaks between chapters; please add those in if you do not have them. This is easily done in Microsoft Word, here are instructions (if you are reading this on paper, just Google “How to add page breaks in Word”).
Once you have done the steps above, you can use the form below to send the manuscript in.
