Submission policies
We reserve the right to refuse to review any book for any reason, even if you have already submitted the book. If we accept your book, we will not print a review unless we can rate the book at least 3 out of 5 stars; this site only promotes great “agnostic” spiritual/new age fiction. No books will be returned. If we choose not to keep your book, it will be donated to a local library. Your submission will receive an honest review that is in no way affected by the fact that the book was free.

Hi PJ — Thanks for the work you do reviewing New Age fiction. Given the fast changing nature of publishing, would you reconsider your policy about self-published writers? Seems like the only way to go these days. If so, I can recommend a funny novel about an E.T walk-in, recently publishrd as an e-book on Amazon by a writer with a track record. What do you think? Regards from Ada. (Oh — I didn’t write it!)
Yes, I’m always open to good writing. It’s just that many self-published books are poorly written and I wouldn’t want to recommend them to others. However, this one sounds intriguing! Send me the info via the newagefiction.gmail address, and I’ll follow up. Thanks.
Thanks for your reply, P.J. The writer is Myles Murchison and the book is called Walking In. He will send you the information for your consideration. It is now available as an e-book from Apple as well as Amazon. I liked this book. Appealing characters and a well-paced story. Inspirational, but with a light, comic touch. Thanks for being willing to consider it. Ada.
I agree with the premise of your article! In my experience, there is clearly a lack of support from the “established publishing world” for new age fiction. It is this very fact that drives many writers with excellent writing skills to the self-publishing avenue. Admittedly, many people fancy themselves writers and stroke their egos by self-publishing weak stories, but your stance of not being interested in any self-published new age books reinforces the very bias you argue against. One should look at any book on its own merit, regardless of how it made it into print. You’ll know in the first chapter if it is worthy of your further consideration.
I agree with your point on self-published books. As you will note, I do accept self-published books of good quality–just submit the first chapter.
