A Reminder Why the M2M Books’ Submission Window is Always Open

Following the successful launch of M2M Books as Wales’s freshest publishing house, and our commitment to increasing the availability of quality literature for underrepresented communities, we are often asked, until when is our submission window open?

The answer is simple: the M2M Books’ submission window remains permanently open.

This is because M2M Books operates to an ideology, not a schedule. We believe that the quality literature we will publish, the kind that speaks to marginalised audiences with complexity and authenticity, need not be hurried to meet an arbitrary timeline. Your best writing should be submitted to us only when it is ready.

Furthermore, M2M Books appreciates that achieving the literary standard of speaking to, and not simply about, a specific marginalised community often requires a comprehensive rewrite of the manuscript. This takes time, and we respect that process. We also understand that many of the texts we will wish to publish are yet to be written.

This long-term commitment to diverse literature is why M2M Books remains open to submissions across all genres (Fiction, Nonfiction, Poetry, and Children’s books). The complex experience of marginalisation demands that these little-heard narratives are told across every form of literature.

So, our rolling invitation to submit your work to M2M Books is permanent. Though our mission and our standards are non-negotiable.

We invite you to study our mission and submit your manuscript when it is ready.
