Submission Page for Luna

 Yet to be Published - Clean YA & Adult Books

Non-negotiable - Full licence to publish worldwide (English-speaking) - 5-year contract

40% royalty rate for ebooks, paperbacks, and audiobooks.

GENRES: Clean Historical Fiction, Crime and Mystery Fiction. 

We are a small but ambitious press. Your book will be given the same care and attention that a larger press can provide, but we have yet to establish our desired reach. Your book will grow as Luna Eden Publishing does. 

First and foremost, we want to express our sincere appreciation for your interest in sharing your manuscript with Luna Eden. 

• We highly value your work and are honoured to consider it for traditional publication. 
• We are looking for submissions in historical fiction, crime and mystery, and otherworldly fiction, which could be a magical combination. 
• We are particularly interested in manuscripts with primary or secondary characters who represent diversity, equity, and inclusion. Whilst we understand that fiction can either exclude or portray people in a negative light, we would encourage our authors to write about these issues in a balanced way. 

If successful, you will be offered a five-year traditional publishing agreement with no advance against future royalties, with options to renew or dissolve after that period. There will be functions to cancel within the agreement before the five-year period.

We will cover all publishing and distribution costs and will pay for the initial and ongoing marketing costs.  Rest assured, we are committed to transparency and fairness throughout the process.

Your royalties will be fixed for the next 5 years at 40% of your book's profits. 

We are unable to provide author copies, but you may purchase up to 50 per quarter at the publishing and shipping cost. 

1. If you do not hear back from us within four weeks, we regret to inform you that your submission was most likely unsuccessful. 
2. If we are interested in your work, we will request the first three chapters and provide feedback within four weeks. 
3. If your submission is successful, we may either accept the full manuscript or request additional revisions. 
4. Please note that publishing a book is a comprehensive endeavour that requires significant dedication and hard work from both the publisher and the author. It can take up to six months from the initial draft to the final edit, followed by an additional three months for cover design and formatting.

What guidance would be provided at the cinema? If it's an 18, please don't send. 

We would love to see anything 12, PG (and would consider manuscripts that might fall under a 15 rating).

Please note that we are not looking for graphic violence or erotica, but we are looking for diversity, equity, and inclusion. 

1. Graphic violence refers to vivid, brutal, and realistic acts of violence depicted in the media.
2. Erotica refers to art that portrays or describes sexual activity with the intention of arousing sexual feelings.
3. Diversity, equity, and inclusion encompass people from diverse racial, ethnic, religious, ability, gender, and sexual orientation backgrounds. 

THANK YOU!
