Underink publishes the under observed, under appreciated and strange. We're interested in the unusual and speculative, and especially the new. We want to help new authors find their feet in the industry, so we accepted unagented works. But mostly we're interested in publishing stories that are important.

We accept full length works of fiction (novels), novellas and full length works of non-fiction.

Please include the following in all submissions:

1. one page synopsis of the work
2. a sample chapter or section of the work
3. 100-200 word summary of who you are

Things To Avoid

• Weird attachment formats, we'd prefer .PDF or .docx if possible
