Please use the inquiry form below for an initial introduction. Our team will respond using the email address you provide.

Manuscript inquiry

Your inquiry will be sent through FormSubmit to admin@thegoodshepherdpublishing.com. Please send only a brief overview; do not include your full manuscript or sensitive personal information. You may be asked to complete an anti-spam check.

This form uses FormSubmit, an external provider. Please do not send confidential manuscripts or sensitive attachments. A delayed confirmation does not necessarily mean delivery failed.
