CKN Christian Publishing is an imprint of Wolfpack Publishing. CKN is currently open to unsolicited manuscripts in Clean Fiction. They are open to the following clean genres but prefer series to stand-alone novels: Romance, Historical Fiction, Western (including romance and non-romance), Amish, Mystery (all sub-genres, including cozy), Post-apocalyptic, Thriller.
They do not share their definition of clean fiction, but it generally means fiction without profanities, that are not explicit sexually, and do not contain graphic violence.
They also state “We are no longer accepting non-fiction, devotionals, Bible study aids, Christian Living, memoirs, children’s books, or Young Adult titles.“
They are not interested in any work that isn’t “clean”, but they are open to publishing work that isn’t Christian. They say “Even if your title is not Christian, if your title fits one of the genres listed above, we encourage you to submit your manuscript for consideration.” You can get a feel for what they have previously published here.
They say this as part of their submission guidelines “If we at CKN decide to accept your manuscript, you will be paid monthly and within days of us receiving a check from the distributors. You will earn as much as 35% of the cover price while also receiving worldwide exposure for your efforts. CKN Christian Publishing covers all marketing and promotions for not only the book, but for you as an author as well. Authors with multiple manuscripts and large social media followings will get further attention for their submissions.”
You can see their submission form here and see their full submission guidelines. They are open to submissions of previously published work. They primarily publish eBooks.
If you have not heard from them after 90 days they ask that you assume your work has been rejected.
