submissions
We are currently open to fiction submissions
Rose Literary represents fiction and narrative non-fiction with a particular interest in distinctive voices and work that engages meaningfully with the world around us.
While our taste is rooted in contemporary commercial and upmarket fiction, we are open to the best of genre writing where there is a strong voice and a compelling hook.
