Traditional Publishing

Senliz accepts only up to ten traditional publishing projects per year. This route is selective and reserved for works we genuinely believe carry literary, cultural, intellectual, or artistic value.

If a manuscript is not accepted for traditional publishing, the author may still continue through the self-publishing route.

What we look for

A distinct voice. A book with a reason to exist. Work that we can stand behind — editorially, legally, and practically.

If accepted

Senliz produces the book under its own model: editorial work, design, formatting, distribution, and catalogue placement. Rights and royalties are agreed in a separate publishing contract.

If not accepted

Because the traditional list is capped at ten projects a year, most submissions will not be accepted for this route. Manuscripts that are not selected may still continue through self-publishing, with the same editorial, design, and Amazon setup services available.

Submission rules

Submit a complete manuscript or a substantial sample with a short synopsis. Simultaneous submissions elsewhere are fine — just let us know.
