# AskOlympiaEditor Every so often one of our editors will connect online with our growing audience. Whether you’re a writer, illustrator, or just interested in the publishing industry, you will be able to speak with us through our online channels as we host regular Q&A sessions throughout the year. Keep an eye on our social media or this page to find out where and when the next one will be. In the meantime, you can read some of our Frequently Asked Questions below. Please visit our website for more information on our authors and latest releases. Next Q&A 31 January @ 1pm Join us on Twitter for the Q&A JOIN US NEW SUBMISSIONS We are currently accepting submissions from both new and experienced authors. SUBMIT ONLINE What is the publishing process? This question can be complex with editorial, production, and marketing all being aspects of the process. If you have just submitted to us, the extended publishing process may not be overly important at this early stage. Should your work be accepted, we provide an in-depth explanation of our process. If you have a specific question you'd like to ask such as ‘Do you sell via Waterstones?’ or ‘Do you distribute worldwide?’, then please feel free to contact us. (The answer to both of those questions is ‘Yes’, by the way.) How should I organise my submission if sending through email? Please send the work to us in either Microsoft Word or PDF format. Ideally, we need this in one single, fluid file. Please do not send multiple emails with multiple attachments. You should be able to send us everything we need with one attachment, and the synopsis and covering letter can be contained within the body of the email. For more information, please read our submission guidelines. Is my book proof-read? Is a cover designed, etc.? Should the work be accepted for publication, these processes will, of course, be undertaken during the production process. Can I submit more than one of my works? We are only able to consider one submission at a time during the editorial process; any further work will be put on hold until the first submission has been reviewed. What type of genres/ literature do you not accept? Although we are open to considering most genres we unfortunately can't accept academic or foreign language works. A quick Google search will lead you to more specialist publishers for these genres. 2005 Olympia Publishers was founded in 2005, the same year London won the bid to host the 2012 Olympic Games. 5 star Read some of our recent reviews on our Facebook page. 40 countries Olympia Publishers have authors from over 40 countries around the world. 67,243,085 Total number of words we have published in our books so far. Must my work be proof-read before submitting? Not necessarily. However, we would advise having a friend look over your work before you submit. If your work is accepted for publication it will always be proof-read, copy-edited and reviewed during the production process. Do I need to double space my work? No. We are not marking or writing on your manuscript during the early stages of the process, we are simply reading and evaluating your work for publication. Do I need to call you to submit? Although we welcome questions, we do not accept submissions over the telephone. Please refer to our submission guidelines page for all the information you need to get the ball rolling. Have you written a book? Read our submission guidelines for all the information on how to submit to us.
