191 publishers accepting simultaneous submissions in May 2025
Congratulations on writing your novel! After all your hard work, it’s now time to find your precious novel a new home with a traditional publisher.
Querying can be time consuming – some publishers take months to get back to you so it’s understandable that you want your submission to be reviewed simultaneously by multiple publishers at a time.
All of the publishers listed here are currently accepting manuscripts without a literary agent, and I’ve done my best to weed out any dodgy or vanity publishers. Even better, they all accept simultaneous submissions!
If this list is too daunting for you, check out my other publishers lists where you can browse publishers via genre or location.
Don’t forget to check out my developmental editing services or pre-querying package if you want to make sure your novel is in top shape before you send it to a publisher for consideration. I offer a variety of services to suit all budgets, from writers looking for the standard developmental editing experience to those seeking high-level feedback with a quick turnaround time.
