Submit Your Work to Sea Crow Press

Sea Crow Press is a traditional independent publisher. We never charge reading or publishing fees, and all submissions are reviewed by our editorial team based on literary merit and alignment with our mission. Selected works receive full professional editing, design, and distribution through our trade partners. Our books are distributed in the US and Canada by Simon & Schuster, and in the UK by Gardner's. 

We’re looking for books that move us — with language, with voice, with vision.

​

Sea Crow Press publishes fiction, nonfiction, and poetry that speaks to our connection with place, nature, and each other. We are especially interested in:

  • Coastal and New England stories with literary power

  • Eco-lit and cli-fi that blend imagination and emotional depth

  • Poetic voices rooted in the natural world or the climate moment

  •  Underrepresented and emerging authors with strong storytelling instincts

We welcome work that challenges, comforts, or creates wonder — always with heart, and always well-crafted.

Submission Guidelines

Please follow the submission guidelines. 

​

We accept:

  • Literary Fiction

  • Climate Fiction (cli-fi)

  • Eco-Poetry

  • Memoir and Creative Nonfiction

  • Place-Based Essay Collections

 

We encourage submissions from debut authors and writers whose work bridges the literary and the urgent.

​

What to Send

Please submit a one-page summary of your manuscript, the first three chapters or up to twenty-five pages, and a brief author bio. Optional: include a short note about your intended audience or comparable titles. All materials should be in Times New Roman, 12-point font, single-spaced, and submitted as a Microsoft Word (.docx) file. We will request the full manuscript if your work seems like a good fit for our list. Simultaneous submissions are welcome, but please notify us promptly if your work is accepted elsewhere.
