SUBMISSION GUIDELINES
info@neweuropebooks.com

As much as we should say, “We’re not accepting submissions at present,” we can’t bring ourselves to say that. Because we do look at just about every email containing a well-targeted submission that comes in. We beg your understanding if it takes us a many weeks, months, or years to respond in a manner that seems worthy of your brilliance and perseverance, or, honestly, to respond at all. With publisher Paul Olchváry moonlighting not only in a day job in education but also as a leading translator of Hungarian literature, please be aware that we’re in the same boat as many big-hearted but small-staffed little presses.

So, yes, feel free to submit simultaneously elsewhere. Indeed, we encourage you to do so. If we do reply with some delay, we’ll probably ask if you’ve had luck elsewhere yet, and if you tell us you haven’t, we’ll then devote more attention to your submission.

Well, if that hasn’t discouraged you from submitting, send a synopsis, an author bio, any advance praise or review quotes, and at least some sample pages in English copied into the body of your email, or else as a pdf. Of course, if you have a lot or even all of the submission in English, send it—as a pdf.

We are committed to publishing translations if we can make it work, budget-wise—and if the book is so terrific that we just can’t say no. Should you know of funding opportunities that can be pursued, please let us know.
