Introducing Ampersand Me Press
Combining the allure of biography with the fine art of personal narrative
SUBMISSION GUIDELINES
& ME is a new series of small books dedicated to the fine art of personal narrative. Each book focuses on a subject – a famous person, a book, a movie, an event – which has been thoroughly researched, and your own experience with the subject: how you discovered your subject and why it is a big part of your life.
Although you need not be an expert on your subject, your proposal must explain why you are qualified to write about it. You should be excited about your subject, inspiring readers to learn more.
Please include a detailed explanation of what your book will be about, highlighting your own experience, and why this subject will be of interest to the general population.
If we love your idea, your writing, and feel you are dedicated to marketing your book (for instance, if you were to write about Louisa May Alcott, you would be willing to send the Louisa May Alcott Orchard House a copy of your book and suggest they carry it in their gift shop) we will invite you to write the book and submit it.
We demand the highest literary quality. You can be folksy with it, as long as the writing is exceptional. Please include references (formatted the old-fashioned way, not a link.) Your title will be the subject of your book & Me. The artwork on the front cover will be AI-generated, and don't worry, this will be noted on the copyright page.
​
Please send your proposal to AmpersandMePress@gmail.com.

Looking forward to hearing from you!
