Our submission guidelines
WE ARE CLOSED TO SUBMISSIONS THROUGH MAY 1, 2024
Gecko Press publishes 16-20 books each year, and 85 percent of these are books translated from other languages. This means we only publish a very small number of original titles, most by New Zealand authors and illustrators. Very occasionally, we commission original cover illustrations.
We only accept submissions if your work is recommended to us by an agent, manuscript assessor or book industry contact or if you have been previously published.
