About (submission)
On our multilingual blog, we regularly publish short fiction, poetry, and creative nonfiction pieces. We also publish POD and electronic books. The authors retain 100% of the profits (if any) and control their own print-on-demand accounts. We do not charge anything for proofreading, copyediting, or cover design. All we ask for is recognition (our logo on the book). All the books we publish must be available for free on our website in PDF format. Authors are free to sell paperback and electronic copies and keep the money for themselves.
Since we are new and lightly staffed, book production may take up to four months, while responding to blog post submissions may take up to three months.
In case you are interested in publishing your book with us, please feel free to contact us. We will get back to you in a month or less.
We accept previously published texts if the author still has the right to them. The author must state the name of the previous publisher so we’d give proper credit.
Please email us your submission at matiapress@hotmail.com. You will hear back from us within three months. Sadly, we can’t provide feedback if we reject the submission.
