Looking at our 2011 schedule we have 2 more spots available for novel submissions. We may be able to add 1 or 2 more if time allows. Please send your queries to queries at maydecemberpublications dot com. If we like it we will ask for the first 50 pages. If we are still interested we will ask for the whole manuscript. When sending in your manuscript, please send a solid, clean manuscript with a well-thought out, well-researched and well-written story, presented in a package formatted to our specifications. If you do not have a story written to send in the full manuscript, don’t query until you do. There is nothing more frustrating than to ask for the full manuscript only to find it isn’t written yet

I am happy to say that Monstermatt’s Bad Monster Joke Book Vol 1 is now available at createspace https://www.createspace.com/3482967 and will soon be available on Amazon. It is early due to the hard work and diligence of both Matt and Kyle and a lot of work from my wife Denise but I think it turned out great. Check it out and get a few. Perfect bad jokes for all ages for all reasons – even if it is just to color some of the great drawings done by Kyle.

I am now waiting on my shipment so I can put together a nice package for the wonderful authors that contributed to it so that they know just how pleased I am with what they have done. You will always be my first and I thank you from the bottom of my heart. What I put in this package to you may not be much but it is full of love and thanks from the bottom of my heart. May this be but the first of many anthologies to come out of May Dec Pub!
