About

CCLaP Publishing means to "fill the gaps" of the usual commercial literary industry, producing and releasing a series of extra-high-quality projects by mid-level writers that in one way or another simply don't make for good full-length paper retail manuscripts. Whether cutting-edge in nature, prurient, or simply of an unusual length, all books by CCLaP Publishing are designed to serve as a creative punctuation to a writer's career, a book of unusually high stature designed specifically to get them notice from the world's heaviest readers.

Before Submitting

We cannot guarantee that the information on this page is correct. It is not unusual for publications to evolve or close without notice. We do our best to keep up, but it isn't always possible. Duotrope listings do not imply endorsement or recommendation of the project being listed. Before submitting, you should use your own judgment to determine whether the project meets your standards.

Always read the full guidelines provided by the publisher.
Try to read at least one previous publication to get a better idea of what the editor would like to see.
Unless the publisher's guidelines state otherwise, always use industry standard manuscript formatting.
For book publishers, it is standard to submit a cover letter, synopsis, and sample instead of the full manuscript. Do this unless otherwise instructed.
Be professional, patient, and persistent.
