Proposals

Thank you for your interest in publishing with The Pilgrim Press. Before submitting your book proposal, we encourage you to browse our website or thumb through our books to consider how your manuscript might fit within our catalog. Notice, for example, that we do not publish Christian fiction or anti-LGBTQ commentaries.

Please observe the following guidelines for book proposals. Proposals should be Word file attachments that are emailed to proposals@thepilgrimpress.com, including:

  • query letter including book description and target audience;
  • author bio and platform for marketing,
  • table of contents, approximate word count, and anticipated completion date;
  • comparable book titles in the market;
  • one sample chapter.

Proposals that do not provide this information are not guaranteed consideration. Book proposals received by snail mail are not reviewed.

We review proposals on a quarterly basis. Please withdraw your proposal if you accept an offer for publication elsewhere.
