Procedure for Submitting a Proposal to Baker Trittin Press

Always send a proposal or query letter (e-mail is acceptable) first.

(Baker Trittin Press does not read manuscripts until the proposal letter or email has been received and a positive reply has been sent to the author.The only exception is when an editor has requested the material).

The Proposal Should Contain

• What the manuscript is about
• Why you wrote it
• The audience for which it is targeted
• How you propose to market it
• What the reader will get out of it
• Table of contents and outline
• A one-page synopsis
• Short statement showing why this manuscript is unique or different
• Biography or resume
• Whether it is a simultaneous submission.

Include a self-addressed, stamped envelope (SASE) with the correct postage if you want your submission returned.

What Happens Next

If your proposal meets our current needs and qualifications, we will request a full manuscript for further evaluation. Baker Trittin Press will respond to your idea within three months of receiving it.

Additional Guidelines

Follow The Chicago Manual of Style (15th edition) rules. In essence:

• Type your material on 8 ½  X 11 paper
• Double spaced
• One-inch margins all around
• Use only one side of the paper
• Pages should be numbered consecutively throughout
• Do not use right-margin justification
• All Scripture references must include the translation or paraphrase from which they came    (Baker Trittin Press prefers but does not require The New International Version or The New American Standard Bible)
• The author is responsible for obtaining - and paying for - permission to quote copyrighted material, and should include that written permission with the manuscript. Generally speaking, one must secure permission if a quotation exceeds one line of a song, one line of poetry, 100 words of an article or 200 words of a book. For further information see The Chicago Manual of Style.
• Send readable copies.
• Do not submit artwork with your manuscript unless it is requested.
• Always include sufficient return postage with any manuscript you want returned.
• Keep a copy of everything you send (i.e., we cannot be responsible for lost originals).

Due to the large number of manuscripts we evaluate, we are unable to provide authors detailed explanations for our decisions.
