FAQ
Questions from writers and readers.
Senliz offers three core publishing services — ghostwriting, traditional publishing, and self-publishing — alongside additional services including international distribution and festival submission, PR for Persian-language works in Iran, and English-language marketing (including UGC-based campaigns).
In traditional publishing, Senliz selects a work, invests in its production, and takes it to market. In self-publishing, the author covers production costs while Senliz provides professional editorial, design, and publishing support.
Senliz accepts only up to ten traditional publishing projects per year. This route is highly selective and reserved for works we genuinely believe are worth investing in.
If a manuscript is not accepted for traditional publishing, the author may still continue through the self-publishing route with full Senliz production support.
