Finding a publisher for a BL novel begins with identifying presses that understand the kind of story you have written. A publisher's catalogue can tell you a great deal about its interests. Look at the genres it publishes, the tone of its books and whether it works with stories similar to yours.
Do not choose a publisher only because it accepts submissions. Check its submission guidelines, rights information, publishing model and communication practices. A good fit should make sense for both the manuscript and the author.
Prepare the materials requested by the publisher. These may include a synopsis, sample chapters, a short author biography and details about the manuscript. Follow the instructions carefully and avoid sending extra material that has not been requested.
It is also worth preparing questions. Ask how editorial collaboration works, what the publishing timeline might involve and how responsibilities are shared.
Bright Tide Media House is interested in queer romance and Boys' Love stories, including fantasy and historical-inspired fiction. Review the current submission guidelines before sending your work.
