Below are the answers to frequently asked questions. If you do not see the answer to your question below, send us a note at information@metallunchboxpublishing.com.

Where can I buy Metal Lunchbox titles?

You can buy them online through various outlets or order them at your local bookstore. We may add convention appearances soon.

Do you accept previously published work?

Not typically for a variety of reasons. We will review on a case-by-case basis. If submissions are open, feel free to submit the inquiry. Please include a note that it was previously published. For more information, visit our Submissions page.

Why do you only open submissions twice a year?

We are a small independent publisher that releases a few titles yearly. We enjoy reading manuscripts, but when we open submissions, we receive many, and reviewing takes time.

Are you a vanity publisher?

No. There is never any cost to authors for publishing their book.  If you are an author who wants to self-publish and would like to hire someone to help you, feel free to reach out and tell us what you are looking for. We can't help you, but we have smart friends and would be happy to make an introduction.
