The royalty publisher accepts your manuscript, edits, produces, markets, and does order fulfillment for the book. The author pays none of these costs. The book is published under the publisher’s imprint.

The royalty publisher pays a royalty to the author on every copy sold. With the right name and the right subject, some royalty publishers will pay the author an advance against future earned royalties.

Royalty publishing is done under the KIRK HOUSE imprint.

As a royalty publisher Kirk House will give priority to manuscripts which are compatible with their primary catalog, and to those where the author may be known regionally or to a specific consituency (an existing connection to the primary market).

Kirk House is a small publisher with limited resources and staff. Kirk House is not staffed to read unsolicited manuscripts. Please mail or e-mail a brief (one to two page) précis of your manuscript together with a one page definition of your audience for the book ( define your audience ). Also, as a small publisher Kirk House is not prepared to make royalty advances.
