d. market potential for the proposed manuscript
e. author credentials
f. sample photos or artwork
g. availability of manuscript on disk, including format
h. postage paid return envelope for all materials
Materials should be submitted on 8 ½" x 11" white paper, double-spaced. Please allow two to four weeks for a response. Please do not phone or e-mail regarding your proposal. Materials sent without a postage paid return envelope will not be returned.
