Thomas Nelson, Inc. publishers do not consider any unsolicited manuscripts. This is a policy consistent with most publishers within the industry. Unsolicited packages and letters mailed to our offices will be returned to the sender unopened. If you are interested in having a manuscript considered for publication by a major publisher, we recommend that you enlist the services of an established literary agent; particularly one acclimated with the Christian Publishing industry. You may find the book The Christian Writer's Market Guide by Sally E. Stuart to be helpful. This book includes writer's guidelines and submission procedures for all Christian publishing houses that do accept unsolicited manuscripts. Additional information about literary agents and guidelines for submitting manuscripts to agents can be found through Bowker�s Literary MarketPlace at www.LiteraryMarketPlace.com. If you are interested in having someone read and review your work, a manuscript critique service is one alternative. The Editorial Services section of Literary Market Place (LMP), published by R.R. Bowker, New Providence, New Jersey, lists over 500 entries, many of which provide some kind of critique service.
