GREYMIND PRESS · BOOK PROPOSAL
Propose a Book to GreyMind Press
A strong book proposal helps GreyMind Press evaluate the scholarly or professional contribution, intended readership, market position, structure, feasibility and publication fit of a proposed title.
Proposal Form, Not Production Template
The proposal form is for evaluating a proposed book project. Acceptance of a proposal does not mean that the proposal document will become the production manuscript. Accepted projects receive separate manuscript and production instructions.

Downloading a package does not create a publishing agreement.
