Ransom
Note Press accepts manuscript proposals only through the U.S. mail. We do not accept queries through email. To query our editors,
please adhere to the following guidelines:
1. We publish only novels of mystery and suspense. Please do not send
proposals for any other type of work. Works should be novel length. On occasion we will consider short-story collections.
2. Enclose a one-page cover letter summarizing your project, along with the first 25 pages of your work. Include your
e-mail address as well as a self-addressed stamped envelope for a response.
3. If you wish your materials to be
returned to you, you MUST include return postage on a self-addressed stamped envelope in your submission packet. We will not
return any materials without prepaid postage.
4. Send submissions to Ransom Note Press, Editorial Department, P.O.
Box 419, Ridgewood, NJ 07451.
We are interested only in novels that offer gripping story lines and well-executed
plots. In general, we prefer novels in which the author has attempted to do something different, to break from tradition
and explore new ground. We do not publish mysteries with pet detectives or humorous mysteries.
