New authors - getting published

GoldStar self-publishing options

If you have written a good book, we have three uniquely structured self-publishing packages to make your dreams come true.

If we accept your manuscript we will work with you to ensure that you have a finished book you will be proud of; a book that readers will enjoy.

New authors' manuscripts welcomed

All submitted manuscripts must satisfy the following conditions:

1. The subject must be acceptable (see submission guidelines).
2. The manuscript must be at least 50,000 words.
3. It must be finished - we do not consider manuscripts that are only part completed though we will offer guidance to help you with your writing.
4. The manuscript must be properly punctuated and spell-checked.
5. It must be presented in electronic format to our exact requirements (see submission guidelines) and we may also request a printed version.

We set high standards

We receive many manuscripts so we have to be selective and we expect aspiring authors to have sufficient pride in their work to ensure it meets our high standards.

If we think the manuscript could be improved, we will tell you what needs to be done. If you study our Authors Tips page, you will find information that will help to improve your chance of success.

We encourage all new authors to get their work read by someone who can give a balanced judgment before they submit it to us. If this is not possible, we will read it for you and give you a critique but we do charge for this service.

Very few submissions we receive are ready for immediate publication but our publishing charges do include a fee for editing and correcting your manuscript.

Please study the Editorial Services page for further details.
