Hello, I'm about to market my first sci-fi novel -- about to format it correctly for submission. Before I start doing this manually -- and I use MS Word 97 and styles so this will be fairly easy -- I wanted to know if anyone knows of a down loadable template that uses the accepted formating for manuscript submissions. I've looked many times but have never found anything worthwhile.
Thanks, Ron Williamson |

Ron - From what I've seen it depends on who your sending it to. A self-pub company I have worked with gave me the dimension of 1.5 margins (top, bot, left and right) with a 0.3 gutter (all under Page Setup). They want it single spaced. Now if you look at Writers Market it will tell you to double space along with 1.5 margins on 20lb paper. No artsy font...best Times New Roman. Hope that answers your question. Kim |
