For Elenvia Publications Submissions
For Elenvia Publications publishes book-length works in all fiction genres. We are also open to non-fiction and poetry collections, especially those with a philosophical lens. As a non-profit, our choices for publication are guided by our mission and values. For all genres, we are interested in works that endeavor to imagine a better world, contribute ideas of how we might achieve one, and/or that grapple with these themes in some way. In Fiction, we are seeking works that explore this through the eyes of well-developed characters in a well-crafted story. 

We seek authors and works that align with our organizational values:
  • All life forms have dignity and shall be treated with the reverent respect that is due to them by nature of their existence. 
  • There is nothing and no one that is above critique. Anyone should feel free to respectfully disagree with anyone else.
  • We define hatred as a lack of respect for another’s basic dignity, and this will not be tolerated in any circumstance.
  • The world is full of philosophical mysteries. We will ask questions and delight in the investigations but never pretend we are certain of the absolute truth about anything.
  • We find it evident that when peace and safety are combined with joyousness, something has gone right, and that thing is good. Everything we do and every project we support will work towards creating more of this good for as much of the world as possible.
While individual fictional characters may not follow these, all larger works we choose to publish will exude these values in their overall ethics. 

If you think we would be a good fit for your work, you're in the right place! Submit this form and we will get back to you as soon as we can. 

PLEASE NOTE: Do not submit a full manuscripts here. We ask for a summary and sample. We will reach out to you if we would like to see more. 

For Elenvia's Mission: With a focus on theatre and literature, we use the arts to unite people under a common philosophy of limitless respect, empathy, and curiosity. We believe in the possibility of a better world and work towards its creation through artistic education and active community organizing.
