Manuscript Submissions
SUBMISSIONS FOR OUR TRADITIONALLY PUBLISHED CHILDREN’S LIST ARE NOW CLOSED.
Thank you to all those who have submitted manuscripts. We are currently assessing and will be in touch over the next several months.
Self-Publishing
We are currently taking a break from assisting with self-publishing projects, but please check back as this may change in the future.
Illustrator Submissions
We are always looking to expand our pool of illustrators, as well as work with illustrators on developing their own children’s book ideas. Please note:
- Currently we are only accepting submissions from Australian residents only. Submissions from outside Australia will be deleted.
- We pay all our creatives, but we are a small indie publisher – and our budget reflects that.
- We are happy to accept submissions from emerging illustrators and students, artists working in digital and/or traditional media, and encourage artists from diverse and under-represented backgrounds.
- We do NOT accept artwork made using generative AI tools.
Please email Sharon Baldwin at: hello@looseparts.com.au and include links to your online portfolio and/or Instagram account – and tell us a little bit about yourself.
