We encourage contributors to submit manuscripts that are in English and/or Amharic. Submissions must be in the form of a Word document. Submissions must include a cover letter and a brief bio of the author(s). Submissions must include a bibliography and any relevant information related to those quotes that are to be included in the manuscript.

Authors must specify the genre of their submission in the cover letter. That is, they must specify whether the submission is for the Bête Noire, Dig Deeper, Living Law or Book Summary outputs on our website. We may not consider submissions that do not fit within our publishing focus, outputs or mission.

Submissions should be double-spaced and use a 12-point font. Submissions should use the Times New Roman Font. We generally do not consider submissions that exceed two thousand words. Submissions that fall significantly below one thousand five hundred words, particularly for the Bête Noire and Dig Deeper outputs, may also not be considered. Submissions that fall significantly below five hundred words, particularly for the Living Law and Book Summary outputs, may also not be considered.

Submissions should be sent via email to gudupublishing@gmail.com. In the subject line of the email, authors should include the title of the submission and the word "submission." In the body of the email, authors should include a brief summary of the submission and the word count.

We do not accept simultaneous submissions. If the author’s work is accepted for publication elsewhere, the author must let us know as soon as possible so that we can remove it from consideration.

All submissions will be reviewed by our editorial team. We will do our best to review submissions as quickly as possible, but please note that for the sake of quality and thoroughness, the review process can take up to two weeks. If the author has not received a response within three business days, they are free to follow up with us. We will notify the author within one week if their submission has been accepted for publication.

If a submission is accepted for publication, it may go through an editing process to ensure that it meets our standards of quality, clarity and originality. We will work with the author to make any necessary revisions, and we will provide the author with a copy of the edited version for their review and approval before it is published. The author will be required to submit a final, edited manuscript that meets the standards of Gudu Publishing. The final, edited manuscript must be formatted according to our style guide and the requested changes must be made to the manuscript.

As per Gudu Publishing’s style guide and branding strategy, we will more than likely design the cover for the manuscript. However, if the author would like to provide their own cover design, they should ensure that it meets the specifications of Gudu Publishing and that all necessary rights and permissions have been obtained.

Gudu Publishing will work with the author to develop a marketing and promotion plan for their published works. This may include using Gudu Publishing’s social media outlets, website and other forms of distribution channels. We encourage authors to be actively involved in the marketing and promotion of their work.

By submitting their work to us, the author confirms that they hold the copyright to the work and that it has not been previously published. The author also confirms that they have obtained any and all necessary permissions for the use of third-party materials that are included in the work. Gudu Publishing will hold the copyright to the work once it is published. The author will retain certain rights, such as the right to use their work for their own personal purposes and the right to be credited as the author.
