Welcome to Belvedere Publishing.
We are a traditionally based publisher with old fashioned values and principles. This means we do not charge the author for our services. If your work is accepted we will publish it and ensure it is marketed and made available worldwide.
We only publish each year a small number of carefully selected titles which we believe we can market effectively. We will occasionally work with authors when we feel a work has promise but needs some fine tuning but we will not undertake major editing.
We are not necessarily looking for the next James Joyce but then neither are we searching for the next memoirs of an airhead! Rather we are actively publishing solid novels by good story tellers.
You can find out more about our submission requirements here. |

How do I find a literary agent? Every writer at one time has asked himself this question. Literary agents are becoming more difficult to approach. One may forgiven for thinking that agents are only interested in Dan Brown or J K Rowling, always searching for the next Harry Potter or Da Vinci Code. To some extent this may be true. Literary agents generally have a huge slush pile to wade through, why should your novel be of interest to them? For every author that manages to secure an agent there are five hundred who do not. Even when an agent agrees to represent you and your novel the battle is still only half-way there. Between you, you still need to convince a publisher to publish your novel. Once your novel is published you still have much work to do with publicising your novel and ensuring you attend book signings and readings to maximise sales of your book. Should I self publish? To self publish a novel takes a lot of work and many different skills in addition to the obvious ones such as being able to complete a novel! Self publishing can also represent a huge financial investment. How much does it cost to self publish a novel? To self publish a small number of copies of your book may be quite cheap. but the problem is, can you sell your novel at a reasonable price? You will find many Print on Demand (P.O.D) options but the result is a paperback novel that needs to retail at £15 by the time the retailer has demanded 60% discount. You are probably not going to sell many copies of your book at that price. Mirador Publishing offer a perfect solution to getting you published. A publishing partnership programme that puts you book in the market place at the right price without the huge financial risk of self publishing |
