Submitting a manuscript

If you are an author or a publisher and you wish to have one or more of your English titles published in Dutch, you are welcome to submit a manuscript. Please read the following terms and conditions before sending in your work, as we will not accept, or respond to, non-compliant submissions:

  1. State who you are and mention any significant achievements, related to your work as an author.
  2. Did you approach other Dutch publishers before contacting us? If so, please state the reason(s) they had for rejecting your manuscript.
  3. Maatkamp does not publish works belonging to any of the following categories: fiction, children's books, poetry and novels. Our focus is on orthodox protestant (evangelical and reformed) books in the following categories: theology, eschatology (premillennialism), social sciences, biographies, Christian living, faith and science, evangelism, mission.
  4. Rather than sending us just one or a few sample chapters, please submit your whole manuscript in a single document (rather than placing each separate chapter or section of your book in a separate document).
  5. Write in the subject field of your message: manuscript.
  6. Give a brief synopsis of your book in your e-mail.
  7. Keep a digital copy of your work on your computer or on a removable storage device.
