WHO WE ARE

The Foothills Press is a small, independent publisher dedicated to publishing quality fiction and creative non-fiction about the Rocky Mountain Region.  Of particular interest are stories which reflect the relation of people and land and the ways each impacts and shapes the other.

The Foothills Press is situated between large commercial and subsidy publishing companies and through its Partners in Publishing Program provides a new and unique opportunity in personalized, cooperative publishing for the novice as well as the experienced author.

THE PARTNERS IN PUBLISHING PROGRAM

Send a one page biographical background, a brief synopsis of your story, and one chapter you feel best exemplifies your writing style and story-telling abilities along with stamped return envelope to:

The Editors
The Foothills Press
2425 N. Chelton Road
Colorado Springs, CO
                80909             

If your story fits our guidelines and we feel merits further reading, we will request your completed manuscript.  If after reading your manuscript we decide not to publish at this time, we will send you a critique explaining our decision, including suggestions for revision. 

If your story is accepted by our editors, we will inform you of your share of the projected cost of publication and marketing, and what share of the cost The Foothills Press will incur.  Usually an up-front 50/50 split, but final costs will be negotiated.

Details of production and marketing will also be negotiated between the author and Foothills Press.

All profits from the sale of your work above final costs will be divided equally between the author and The Foothills Press.
