Partridge Island Publishing is a new idea in publishing. We are a community-minded, family-like company. Our greatest wish is to help Canadian authors get their works out into the world.

We accept most genres and content - with the exception of stories that contain child pornography, child abuse or rape. All manuscripts will be delivered to our Submission Committee for consideration.

If we cannot accept your manuscript for whatever reason we will give you an honest review on why and suggestions to help you get your story onto bookshelves. 

We are looking for works of fiction including; fantasy, romance, historical fiction, poetry, literary fiction, horror and comedy. We are not accepting self-help or non-fiction works at this time.

Submissions can be sent to amanda@partridgeislandpublishing.ca
