Are you an aspiring author? Do you have a young adult or new adult manuscript polished and ready to go? Well Bloomsbury Spark is ready to accept your submissions!
Bloomsbury Spark is a global, digital imprint from Bloomsbury Publishing for teen, YA, and new adult readers featuring new and established authors. This new venture from Bloomsbury is currently acquiring teen, young adult, and new adult fiction across all genres, including but not limited to romance, paranormal, contemporary, dystopian, science fiction, mystery, thriller, historical fiction, and more—from writers all over the world. Unlike a traditional trade list, Bloomsbury Spark eBooks are published exclusively in digital format first, and sold side-by-side with Bloomsbury print and digital books!
If you’re an author, Bloomsbury Spark is a hands-on, full-service publishing house, not only interested in publishing your book, but also crafting your career.
Bloomsbury Spark is a one-stop shop for getting your book published, from carefully shaping your manuscript to posting your book for sale. Every Bloomsbury Spark eBook will be edited by a dedicated Digital Editor. Other services provided include: copyediting, proofreading, cover design, and local marketing. The entire imprint will also receive marketing and advertising support in addition to the campaign for individual books.
Agents are not required for your manuscript to be considered by Bloomsbury Spark. They are currently accepting English language manuscripts between 25,000 and 60,000 words. Please send your manuscript (in Word) to one of the following email addresses, along with a query, a brief biography, and links to your online presence. Please do NOT submit your manuscript more than once or to more than one email address.

Do we have any deadline for this opportunity?
I agree with Adrian. Why is it capped at 60 000 words? In my experience that is roughly just over half a book.
Does it mean that a Nigerian can't send manuscript?
