Submissions

Authors interested in submitting manuscripts for consideration should send a 1,000-word proposal, preferably in the body of an e-mail, to the senior editor, info@pricklyparadigm.com. The proposal should detail the topic and main argument of the piece. It should also include a list of potential audiences and marketing considerations. If a proposal is successful, the Press will then ask to review the manuscript in its entirety. Unsolicited full-length manuscripts will not be considered.

Authors are strongly encouraged to familiarize themselves with our backlist before submitting a proposal.

Please also keep in mind when preparing a proposal and/or manuscript that we hew to a non-fiction pamphlet format, including:

Strong, original voices writing for a non-academic audience
Historical perspectives from across the disciplines encouraged
Generally less than 25,000 words
Limited citations and bibliography
