Quince Publishing: A new kind of publishing opportunity.

Aspiring and frustrated authors may find the answer to their prayers in Quince Publishing Ltd which creates an opportunity for new authors to find their way into print. The venture is the brainchild of Simon Mitchell whose extensive publishing experience has led to disillusionment with the current system.

"Too many authors' agents and publishers dismiss new writers out of hand. Well known names can get any book published, regardless of merit while interesting and original work often gains rejection after rejection."

Quince Publishing, based in Shoreditch by the City of London, will consider any complete manuscript of not less than 60,000 words submitted in its required format in any area of commercial fiction.

Please send your first two chapters, synopsis and covering letter with a sae to
