2. if it's a work of fiction, it's a work of fiction. That means names, characters, businesses, places, events and incidents are either the products of the author’s imagination or used in a fictitious manner. Any resemblance to actual persons, living or dead, or actual events is purely coincidental. (novels, short stories.)

3. Please do not send manuscripts, for the protection of both our work. There are several legal reasons, I am not able to accept them. If you are interested in a reference book, look for books like the Literary Market Place or Writer’s Market.
