Allen & Unwin Pty Ltd

This is a well known name in Australian Writing.

They have chlidren's books.

I guess I will have to really read the guidelines of all - as - submitting to one ties up the process until you have an answer.

So I will need to know

  1. Which one offers the best deal
  2. Which has the shortest turn around time
  3. Which is the best suited to the type of book
  4. Which promotes the finished item best

I'll keep looking this is a good one though!

Children’s books include: picture books, beginner novels, novels for 10-12 year olds, young adult fiction and activity books. A link to submission guidelines is at http://www.allenandunwin.com/writing/centre.asp
Response time: three to six months.
