SCHOLASTIC NEW ZEALAND ANNOUNCES CHANGES TO MANUSCRIPT SUBMISSIONS POLICY

Press Release - 10 September 2013 - 


Scholastic New Zealand’s Publishing Department is pleased to announce that it is now accepting unsolicited manuscripts from New Zealand authors new to Scholastic, provided they have previously had a manuscript accepted for publication by a New Zealand publisher in the past ten years.

Previously Scholastic New Zealand’s policy was that no unsolicited manuscripts were accepted from authors not already on our list.

Scholastic New Zealand is committed to publishing quality books for New Zealand children by New Zealand authors and illustrators.

Previously unpublished authors are encouraged to enter the Joy Cowley Award (picture books) or Tom Fitzgibbon Award (junior & middle fiction) sponsored by Scholastic and facilitated by Storylines: storylines.org.nz. Winners are published by Scholastic New Zealand.


To submit manuscripts for consideration please email Publishing Assistant Frith Hughes: fhughes@scholastic.co.nz
