Garret Books and Susie Cornfield regret they are unable to respond to unsolicited manuscripts or individual requests for information and advice. We are a small publishing house and don't have the necessary time, facilities or staff.

However, we do advise budding writers, illustrators and publishers to study The Writers & Artists Yearbook (A & C Black, London), published annually, which is packed with useful information. You can buy it and it's also available in most public libraries.
