Baobab Press seeks books that communicate and support their themes through new and well-articulated means. We like risk. We like invention. More importantly, we look for a quality of thought that adds depth to a writer's concerns. And although it is not an official requirement, we tend to select literary work with a strong sense of place at its core. Ultimately, our goal is to publish work that resonates in the  contemporary climate and that will continue to resonate in years to  come. 


If you have a 50-150 page comic manuscript  or graphic novel with finished artwork that you believe  would be a good fit for our catalog, we want to hear from you. Simple as that.


Please let us know if any comics have been published in a  previous format. Comics previously published in a collected format or previous book will not be considered for publication. Simultaneous submissions are welcome as long as authors  inform us immediately upon acceptance elsewhere, but please DO NOT submit more than one manuscript at a time. Wait until you have received a response before you submit again. 

We use Submittable to accept and review our submissions.
