GUIDELINES FOR AUTHORS

All unsolicited submissions must include a detailed indication that writers have read at least three of the publisher's books. This will help familiarize writers with the type of work Tradewind Books publishes and reduce the number of misdirected manuscripts we receive. No manuscripts will be accepted without this proviso. Picture book manuscripts should be sent to our Canadian address and should be accompanied by a SASE (or International Reply Coupons for submissions from outside Canada). Send sample chapters only of novels for young readers, accompanied by a plot summary and a chapter by chapter outline. Query before sending electronic submissions.



Michael Katz teaches a course called Childrens Book Workshop at the UBC Writing Centre for writers, illustrators, book designers and those interested in working in the industry. Detailed sample course outline. (Adobe Acrobat required)
