AUTHORS​

Authors are welcome to submit a book proposal or manuscript in the areas of the arts, humanities as well as the social and behavioral sciences. Work in STEM fields is also of interest. Authors should have a doctorate in their field or a graduate degree appropriate to either their field of research and teaching or a career in an alternative academic environment. While preference will be given to authors holding a faculty position (tenure, adjunct, seasonal, etc.) at a college or university, submissions by independent scholars, professionals in alt-academic careers, postdoctoral fellows, and doctoral candidates will also be considered. 

When submitting a proposal or manuscript, authors holding a teaching position should include the planned semester use for course text adoption and appropriate academic programs for their book. All authors should indicate key markets for their book.

Proposals for anthologies, monographs, and in-depth research manuscripts receive equal consideration as mansucripts. 

Please note that MacBain & Boyd charges no fees to authors/editors for submission, review, or publication.
