A publishing conversation
begins with the work.

Schrifton is interested in books with a distinct intellectual or narrative voice that can benefit from close editorial development.

What we are
looking for.

We welcome essays, intellectually ambitious nonfiction, interdisciplinary projects, cultural and historical narratives, and works with a clear authorial voice.

We are not a printing service. Projects shaped only for commercial reach, without editorial fit, or not yet ready for a development conversation are not our current priority.

A proposal is enough
to begin.

A first approach can include a concise description of the work together with a proposal, synopsis or writing sample. A complete manuscript is not required.

Tell us what the work is, who it is for, why it needs to become a book and where you are in the process.

Two distinct
editorial paths.

Books is Schrifton’s publishing programme. Titles are selected editorially and require a separate publishing agreement.

Edition DenkRaum is an independent review and development service for research-based projects. Using it does not imply or guarantee publication by Schrifton.
