At Exposure Press, we’re on the lookout for fresh, bold voices that challenge conventions and offer new perspectives. If you’re an author with a unique story to tell, whether fiction or non-fiction, we invite you to submit your manuscript and join a publishing house that is committed to championing underrepresented voices.

When you submit your manuscript to Exposure Press, you’re not just submitting a piece of work, you’re contributing to a literary movement that seeks to make a real impact. We’re passionate about nurturing talent and ensuring that your book reaches its full potential.

Submission Guidelines

If you’re ready to take the next step in your writing journey, we encourage you to submit your manuscript today. Let’s make your story impossible to ignore.

We are NOT currently accepting horror, educational or scientific work.

Submissions are currently CLOSED

To submit your work for review, e-mail us at: submissions@exposurepress.xyz

Include your name, genre and book title in the subject line. This enables us to direct your manuscript to the most suitable editor, for review, and helps us with tracking.  Put the synopsis in the body of the email, along with an author bio and the word-count.

You can submit the full manuscript (preferred), sample chapters, or a proposal with a synopsis. We accept all formats but we prefer .doc or .docx (Mircosoft Word),  ODT, PDF, RTF or Epub, in that order.

General Information

If you are submitting a full manuscript, please be patient, we will review it as soon as we can. It usually takes 4-8 weeks to complete a review, however during busy periods it can take longer. If you haven't heard from us in 3 months then unfortunately, it means it wasn't a good fit for us.
