Are you still with us? Awesome! We take pride in discovering fantastic writers with amazing, surprising stories to tell. To be honest, we reject most manuscripts because a) they don't fit what we are looking for (above) or b) they contain what we will not accept (above) c) we don't feel we can sell the book because it doesn't have commercial AND literary appeal d) we feel you may not fit the press. Wait. What? "may not fit the press"? What does that mean? We talk to potential authors, and we want those who will be positive, who will network with the veteran authors, who will be pleasant to work with, have enthusiasm and patience, and who will help sell the book. What does that mean? "sell the book"? Easy! Give interviews! We have authors who land in very esteemed magazines and on impressive blog posts. We want people who are visible and who are active. We sell books but we need you to join in the PR we provide. We want people who want to sell books! We hope you are the one in a hundred who will join us.
