Ace Publishing

Thank you for your interest in Ace and Roc Science Fiction & Fantasy. Here are a few good rules to follow when you are submitting a manuscript to us for consideration. Be sure you are familiar with the kinds of books we publish. Take a look at your local bookstore or on this Web site. The usual length for a manuscript is between 75,000 and 125,000 words. Ace and Roc do not accept submissions of short stories, non-fiction, children's books, poetry, or artwork. There are two ways to submit your work. You may email a query letter with the first ten pages of your book pasted in the body of the email. Do not attach any documents. Our email address is sff@us.penguingroup.com. We prefer e-mail submissions, but alternatively, you can mail a query letter, short synopsis, and the first 50 pages of your book to us at: Ace/Roc Science Fiction & Fantasy Penguin Group USA 375 Hudson Street New York, NY 10014. Include a self-addressed, stamped envelope for the reply and do NOT send us your only copy. Please use only one of these channels. Please submit only one work at a time. Please allow 3 months for a reply to an e-mail query, and 12 months for a reply to hard copy submissions.
