Editor's note: New adult

New adult stories follow characters in their late teens and early twenties finding independence, and editors look for that transitional tension.

If you're a first-time author with a new adult novel, you shouldn't have to guess where to start. Our process is straightforward: you share your questionnaire, we review what you submitted, and we follow up with next steps if there's a strong fit.

  • Editorial feedback and direction tailored to new writers
  • A clear path from questionnaire submission to publication planning
  • A publishing partner built for first-time voices and thoughtful storytelling
