WBB White Beard Books is looking for believable or fantastic plots, well-developed settings and characters that are tangible and involved in the story. We want originality and dedicated story telling. Non-fiction should be well researched and completely documented with appropriate citations for any sources other than public domain or the author’s own personal knowledge or opinion. Fantasy fictional worlds should be clearly developed and detailed enough to create a “visual setting” that a typical reader can grasp. Our Augusta-Heritage Press imprint accepts submissions in all the mainstream fiction sub-genres, including, but not necessarily limited to Historical Fiction, Contemporary Fiction, Young Adult Fiction, Suspense, Mystery, Paranormal Fiction, and Children’s Literary Fiction. Our Heart of Valentine Publishing imprint accepts submissions in fiction sub-genres, including, but not necessarily limited to Romance Fiction, Erotica Fiction, Paranormal Erotic Fiction, Gay and Lesbian Fiction that avoids any formula approach.
