Proposals

If you wish to submit a proposal for a book to Cameron & Hollis, please send a brief description – anything from around 300 to 750 words – to Jill Hollis at jh@cameronbooks.co.uk

You should define the proposed title’s subject and scope, indicating how it is different from or better than existing books on the same subject. Please also say why you think it will sell, whether it will have a particular target audience and any ideas you have for reaching that audience directly when the book is published.

Your proposal should include a breakdown of chapters or sections, an estimate of text length and, preferably, a short section of sample text – of about 2000 to 3000 words – formatted as a Word document.

Any relevant information about you and your previous work and publications (if any) would be helpful, especially if you have experience that relates to the subject about which you are writing.

Please feel free to call on +44 (0)1683 220808 if you would like to ask questions not answered here about submitting a proposal.
