We welcome:

Moratorium on new manuscripts.
Due to the overwhelming number of manuscripts that have been submitted, we will not accept any new manuscripts until we have published all of those that have already been submitted. The moratorium may last for many months as we catch up with our backlog and revamp our system to better serve the authoring community.
If you would like us to notify you when we do accept new manuscripts again, please send an email with "New manuscript" in the Subject heading to: Submissions@indypublish.com
You will not get a response email from us, but will automatically be placed into our list to be notified when the moratorium is over

Publish your work for specific, limited audiences - such as classes, seminars or your friends and family. In addition to the following services offered in this package, you may also select items from our add-on services menu to add to the package as desired.
Once you're ready to publish, you can submit your manuscript online or by mail.
