Soul Mate Publishing: Now Seeking Book Manuscripts

Soul Mate is a romance eBook publisher. They have only been around for a few years but have published a number of books in that time.  They encourage authors to blur genre lines and to experiment. They respond to every manuscript submitted correctly, personally. They try to respond to all submissions within 4 weeks.

Soul Mate seems to focus exclusively on publishing eBooks for the kindle market place. Most of their covers are good, not great. The focus of the website seems to be on selling more books, not recruiting more authors. Although a lot of information is available about the individual editors there is very little information on the website about the company as a whole.

They publish all the following romance sub genres, action/adventure, chick lit, contemporary, erotica, fantasy, historical, inspirational, new adult, novellas, paranormal, sci-fi, suspense, time travel, urban fantasy, women’s fiction, and young adult.

They encourage potential submitters to read all the editor profiles seriously and then to submit to the editor that best fits your novel.  You can see the editor profiles here. Out of the ten editors, only one is currently closed to new submissions.

In the body of your query letter make sure you include your contact information, the genre, a brief summary of your story, and any contest wins or publishing credits. Also attach a synopsis and the first three chapters of your manuscript.

You can learn more at their website. They are currently only accepting submissions from existing Soul Mate authors or when an author is directly requested by an editor.
