The Growing List of Urban Book Publishers and Agents, Paranormal Romance Publishers, YA Urban Fantasy Publishers

More and more writers are writing YA urban fantasy books. They can not keep up with the young readers who are reading them. Finding a list of good and trusted publishers is getting more and more difficult as the agents become publishers and publishers are in a period of great change. The current solution is to build a business from the ground up. Self-publishing, made possible by great algorithm and current tech gives a great solution to writers and established authors.

You will find a lot of ethnic publishers, specially black/African-American publishers, Asian publishers, Hispanic publishers and Native American publishers who are interested in receiving all kinds of submissions. Obviously, you have the large group of other publishers who accept and review all submissions. Make sure you follow their submission rules.

Here is a sample of the growing list of urban/YA/Paranormal Romance/Horror publishers. Please just know that there are many more who will be added to this list. If you want to make a recommendation of a nice publisher, write it down in the recommendation section below or the "comment area" below this post. Some of them do not accept unsolicited materials. Get familiar with their open submissions dates and deadlines.


List of Publishers You May Want to Consider: The following is only a suggestion list. You do not have to go with any of them. Read their submission guidelines and make sure you are comfortable with them.

www.kdp.amazon.com (Think about the power and easiness of publishing your works on your own terms without any control from a legacy publisher. You will get %70 on books priced at $2.99 and %35 on books priced at 99 cents. Examples: Michael Connelly, Amanda Hocking, JA Konrath etc)
