Please note that Kalahari Press will accept less than 20% of all submissions for reasons of quality, commitment, and available resources. We will however respond to all submissions.

Once you submit your manuscript, you will receive a system-generated email confirmation that your submission has been received. Please allow up to eight weeks for a response. If we determine that your manuscript is a fit for our press, we will email you a proposal. If we determine that your manuscript requires a bit more work, we will provide brief editorial feedback.

Please review your work meticulously prior to submission. Also let us know if your work has been accepted by another publisher during this process.
