A Few Notes Before You Write
Submissions questions — if your question is about an open call, please read the relevant submissions page carefully before getting in touch. Most questions about format, word count, and rights are answered there. If something is genuinely unclear, we’re happy to help.
Manuscript submissions themselves should not be sent through this form. Use the form on each individual submission guidelines page.
Rights & licensing — if you’re enquiring about translation rights, adaptation rights, or any other subsidiary rights related to a Simile Press title, please include the title and rights territory in your message.
Trade & bookseller enquiries — if you’re a bookseller, librarian, or distributor interested in stocking Simile Press titles, we’d love to hear from you. Please include your business name and location.
Simile Press is based in Johannesburg, South Africa.
