Submissions

------------------------------------------------------------

 

 

 

Richard Henshaw Group specializes in commercial Fiction and Non-Fiction with a special interest in all areas of Crime Fiction.  Check out our List page to see more details.  We try to respond within 2-3 weeks for a query and 3-6 weeks for completed manuscripts. Please keep in mind that we do not control the number of submissions we receive.

 

³Mail Submissions

For Fiction we like to take a look at a query letter, short synopsis and the first fifty pages.  For Non-fiction we prefer a proposal.  ALWAYS include a SASE (self-addressed, stamped envelope) if you would like a response. 

Send your submission to our new address:

Richard Henshaw Group
22 W. 23rd St., 5th Floor
New York, New York 10010

³Querying from outside the U.S.

Foreign stamps (even Canadian stamps) are not valid in the United States.  You must have U.S. stamps on your SASE or include an International Response Coupon (IRC) if you would like a response or the return of your material.  IRCs are available at your local post office. One IRC will cover the cost of returning a letter sized envelope only.  If you wish for the return of a partial or proposal you will need to include many IRCs. In order to calculate how many IRCs you will need to send, please go to the U.S. Post Office website.

³E-mail Submissions

Richard Henshaw Group accepts e-queries of up to 250 words. Please note that we do not open any attachments.  Because of the vast number of e-queries we receive each week the response time can be 4-6 weeks.  To e-mail your submissions please send it to submissions@Henshaw.com.
