FAQ

Who can submit to Tule?
  • Tule Publishing accepts both agented and unagented submissions. Tule welcomes authors of all races, ethnicities, sexual orientations, religions, gender identities, and ages and respects how all authors choose to identify.
What romance subgenres are you looking for?
  • We are currently looking for #ownvoices, small town contemporary, sweet cinematic romances, and more! For more specific information, please visit our submission page.
Is Tule a full-service publisher?
  • Yes, Tule covers professional editing, cover art, formatting, e-conversion, and marketing support. We are similar to a traditional publisher in that sense, but on a smaller scale.
Do you take previously or currently published submissions?
  • No, we do not take currently published or previously published submissions. Please feel free to submit your unpublished work to submissions@thetulegroup.com.
As an author, can I use a pseudonym or stock photo to represent myself?
  • We respect each author’s privacy and allow pseudonyms to be used. Because some of our authors use a pseudonym, we understand an author may not want to use a real photo. In this instance, an author logo can be used instead. We do not permit the use of stock photos.
How do I find out about upcoming releases?
  • Don’t miss our weekly newsletter that features upcoming releases, giveaways and special author features. Sign up here. You can also find new books on our coming soon page.
