How to Submit to This Here Indie Biz

Ok folks here's the deal. This is not Random House, Harper Collins, or some other big-name publisher. This is Mama Specific Productions AKA MSPmedia run by me, Trula Breckenridge and a few friends and relatives. This is a laid-back, DIY, indie biz, ok?

While I appreciate folks wanting to adhere to industry standards and wanting to follow mainstream submission protocol, it really isn't neccessary when dealing with me. Please, don't make it harder than it has to be, it's really not complicated to submit. In short, all you have to do to submit to any of the upcoming book projects is to follow the call for submissions. That's it.

Please don't send me email asking what specificially I am looking for; that is in the call for submission, ok. Please don't send me email with links to your prior writing and then request that if I like what I see to email you back if I want you to submit. If you want to submit...then just submit. I'm not going to know if I will accept it until I read it, ok. Please don't send me email asking if it's the right email address!! What the - ok. and please don't send me email asking if I will publish your writing that is NOT about any of the book projects. The answer is no, so why waste your time and mine. and please don't email me constantly wanting to know if your work has been accepted. I promise you, you will get a response either way prior to the reply date posted on the call for submission. Speaking of which, here are the current calls:

Futuristic Motherhood
Teen Mama Perspectives
Mama Poems II

Last but certainly not least, please DO get the name of the project right prior to submitting!

***edited to add***

I am accepting submissions from people everywhere, not just residents of the USA.

To be considered for acceptance your submission must be about...what the theme of the project is about. If your work is tangential to the theme or you are unsure if it relates to the theme, it probaby is not right for the project. Please do not email me or contact me asking if I will accept submissons that are sorta/kinda/loosely related to the theme...all I can tell you is that to be considered for acceptance your submission must be about...what the theme of the project is about.
