We are currently accepting manuscript submissions. We encourage both first-time as well as seasoned writers to contact us.

If we are interested, we will contact you. Make sure to include your contact information, which should always include your correct email address.
Unfortunately, we are only able to respond to material that is of interest. While every care is taken, Lady Valkyrie accepts no responsibility for manuscripts and/or other materials submitted electronically or by other means (if applicable); in addition, we do not accept originals or hand-written materials. We neither safe keep any of your submissions nor return or inventory them.
If we decide to work with you and accept your manuscript for publication, we will assign an editor to work with you throughout our rigorous editing process. Our books and electronic books are thoroughly edited to meet the highest standards set for its publication. We will also discuss with you the potential distribution and marketing options available. Only if we offer you a contract and only if you accept it will we move forward.
We expect our contracted authors to come prepared with a marketing plan outlining the specific ways in which they intend to promote their book. The promotional and marketing stage is fundamental in achieving any type of success; the better you promote your own work, the better chances of generating buzz and potential goals. Today, social media is key in book promotion and visibility, and we expect each author to be active in social media before and after the book’s release. Keep in mind that a strong social media presence will be in your favor when we consider your manuscript for publication.
No phone calls, please.
Thank you for your interest!
