Second chance for writers at Devil’s Party
PDR Lindsay-Salmon
Hawkshaw Press is ‘a literary small press specialising in crime and detective fiction.’ Devil’s Party Press is their partner ‘publisher of second acts’. Hawkshaw Press is currently open to subs and the editorial team seek submissions of novel-length works no more than 100,000 words. The team want a book ‘full of intrigue, crime, maybe a few people die’. They like diverse characters, but ask that writers write from their own background. That is don’t have a main character who is of a different ethnic and cultural background if it isn’t your cultural background.
