How It Works
We deeply appreciate you contacting us in the hope of publishing your book. Please read the following guidelines first, before submitting your manuscript.
Subject matter: Your book must be Christian in nature and in agreement with the Statement of Faith of Deeper Revelation Books.
- Non-fiction titles are under the imprint of Deeper Revelation Books.
- Fiction titles are under the imprint of Pure Heart Publications.
- Children's titles are under the imprint of Children of Promise.
- Social issues and success strategies are under the imprint of Pivotal Publications.
Word Format
If you send a digital copy of your manuscript in Microsoft Word format, make it a simple layout on 8.5x11 pages. We do not accept Microsoft Publisher documents. About a one inch margin is standard. Either single-spaced or double-spaced is acceptable. Email it to us by using our online submission form, or send it to our mailing address on a USB drive.
Pictures/illustrations
If you have pictures or illustrations for your book, do not try to insert them in your Microsoft Word document. Instead, send a USB drive (flash drive) or a digital file of your pictures/illustrations (scanned at a high resolution / 300 dpi or more), and a detailed list in a Word document explaining where they go in your manuscript and what captions you want with them. Another great option is having a picture album instead, using high grade, glossy, photographic paper inserted in the middle or the back of your book.
Copyright
Our Associate Authors maintain ownership of their books and copyrights. We can obtain the copyright for you or explain to you how to go through the process yourself. Your book is safe with us. The normal process is to copyright your book only AFTER it is in its final state and published.
FYI
Avoid Excessive Formatting
Please do not try to lay out your book in a complicated way or with book sized margins. Do not insert headers, footers, pictures, illustrations, text boxes, images, drop caps, or use multiple fonts for emphasis. Excessive formatting actually complicates the process. It makes it more challenging to adapt to our professional publishing software. It is best to communicate with your book coach the unique characteristics you would like to see in the layout of your book. We will work with you closely to achieve what you envision.
Adobe InDesign
If your book has already been laid out in a professional publishing program, we might be able to work from the design a graphic artist has already created, either as is, or with the intention of changing the appearance, if that is the author’s desire. The publishing program we use is Adobe InDesign, so that is our preference. Other formats, such as Pagemaker, will also be considered on a case-by-case basis, but at times, transferring from another publishing program into InDesign may require an extra fee.
