At Pecan Springs Publishing, we believe in imagination, bold storytelling, and voices that think beyond the box. If you’re here, you probably do too.

Below is the skinny on how to submit your work.

 

🌟 What We’re Looking For

We publish stories that spark curiosity, stir emotion, and stay with readers long after the last page. We are currently accepting:

  • Children’s Picture Books — imaginative, heartfelt stories for young readers
  • Early Readers — engaging stories for emerging readers
  • Chapter Books — fun, adventurous tales for ages 6–10
  • Middle Grade Fiction — stories with humor, heart, or mystery
  • Young Adult Fiction — character‑driven narratives with emotional depth
  • Inspirational Nonfiction — uplifting and encouraging works
  • Memoir — true stories with a compelling arc
  • General Nonfiction — educational, practical, or narrative nonfiction
  • Cookbooks — recipe‑driven books with personality and story
  • Humor — witty, lighthearted manuscripts
  • Short Story Collections — cohesive collections with a unifying theme

If your manuscript doesn’t fit neatly into a category but has heart, imagination, and purpose, we still want to see it.
