We welcome ideas for new books in all the areas in which we publish.

Before submitting your proposal, you may find it useful to browse the complete list of JKP, Singing Dragon and Handspring titles on our websites (www.jkp.com and www.singingdragon.com) to get an idea of the areas in which we publish and the markets we reach. Generally, we are a non-fiction publisher, but some of our children’s publishing uses stories to help champion understanding and empowerment.

Your proposal will be carefully read by our editorial team, and may be peer reviewed. The editorial process can take some time and it is likely take around 8 weeks before we are able to let you know whether or not we are interested in taking your proposal forward. You may need to wait longer to hear from us during busy periods.
