Charisma House and Siloam Press will review your manuscript. If your manuscript meets our current needs, we will contact you. If your manuscript does not meet the current needs, your manuscript will be immediately sent to Creation House Press, our co–publishing division, for further review.

Charisma House does not publish poetry, fiction, testimonies, short stories, pamphlets, brochures, song books or posters.

Creation House Press requires the author to purchase a minimum of 2,000 copies of their book from the first press run at a deep discount off the retail price of the book. This removes most of the financial risk from the company and the author shares in that risk.

Follow the directions to fill out our Project Appraisal Form(PAF) completely. Please note at the top of the form which imprint you want to be reviewed for—either Charisma House or Siloam Press. Please do not submit your submission to Charisma House or Siloam Press if we do not publish your topic stated above. You can send your proposal by email, fax or mail. We do not accept cassettes, videos, CD’s or diskettes.

No. We ask that you only send the table of contents and one chapter along with your PAF for review. We will request the entire manuscript if needed. Due to the amount of submissions we receive, our editors are not capable of reading all the manuscripts we receive for review.

We understand that you would like to consult with us, but due to schedules and time constraints our editors do not have this opportunity.

Include a self–addressed, stamped postcard that gives space to sign and date and we will be more than happy to return it to you.

Allow approximately six to eight months for review. Due to our editor’s schedules, the review process may take longer.

We will notify you by email or mail.

Should your manuscript not meet our current needs, your proposal will be sent to Creation House Press, our co–publishing division, to be reviewed. If your manuscript is of interest, a packet of information about Creation House Press will be sent to you.

If you enclose a SASE when sending your material, we will return your material back to you. Otherwise, we will discard your material, as we do not have space to store all the submissions we receive.

You’re proposal will be read through thoroughly but unfortunately, our editors are not available to answer these questions. Consider joining a critique group where can receive input on your manuscript.

Unfortunately, we do not discuss this information until an author nears the contract stage.

You can visit First Edition, which is affiliated with Evangelical Christian Publishers Association (ECPA) at www.ecpa.org. Here you can submit your manuscript online and publishing houses can review it.
