NOTE: No graphic sex or erotica accepted, nor will material with violence and/or language inappropriate to the book's content be considered. |
| Submission Guidelines - Please follow completely. Following these guidelines is a test. Failing means an automatic rejection. - Authors are paid in royalties Authors do NOT pay for publishing IMPORTANT: Any material used in a manuscript from another source MUST be cited and, if used, must have written permission from the owner of that intellectual property; and a copy of the permission must be included with the manuscript. The only exception is the use of material in public domain. IMPORTANT: Any submission must be first professionally edited and written to publishing standards, including correct spelling and grammar (spell check will help with spelling to some extent, but making sure words are spelled and used correctly is part of writer's responsibility). 4RV editors will work with authors, who are offered a contract, to meet 4RV standards and to improve work, not to do editing and proofreading that should have been finished, with revision, before submission. Acceptance of manuscript is not guaranteed. Electronic submissions are accepted and preferred, but all components must be sent as email attachments in Word 2003 or later (newer versions cannot be opened), and guidelines must be followed. Send electronic submissions to President@4rvpublishingllc.com Special note:. 4RV takes a 3 month option on the work, after asking for full manuscript, meaning it cannot be submitted elsewhere until rejected by 4RV during that time. If the company sends an email voicing interest in the work, 4RV has 30 days to send a contract or notice of revisions needed before a contract is offered. Until then, submissions should not be offered or a contract accepted anywhere else. The author has option not to submit. Guidelines for submissions:
The following should be attached to the email as separate attachments:
Double spaced with paragraphs indented per correct manuscript format Only one (1) space after periods. Do NOT use two (2) spaces after periods - to be used for all manuscript material submitted. Font such as Times New Roman, easily read Font size 12 One inch margins

IF submitting by mail, send cover letter, synopsis, manuscript, and SASE (Self-addressed Stamped envelope) in envelope large enough that nothing is folded. Please use paper clips rather than staples.
