Reasons Your Book Gets Rejected by Publishers


First, you should know that manuscripts, not the writer gets rejected – especially if you are a relatively unknown writer. That was why JK Rowling’s manuscript for Harry Potter got rejected 12 times!!! But we can bet that right now, most publishers would accept virtually anything from her. This is because, first, your work is what pushes you until you get really popular and then your name carries you.

But if you are relatively unknown, then your work is bound to go through intense scrutiny. If the publisher believes it is not up to standard, it gets rejected. The reasons for rejection start with the basics, i.e. the manuscript sucks. Author can’t format/spell/doesn’t know grammar or punctuation. S/he is clueless about narrative, characterization, plotting, pacing, and can’t write dialogue. You should note that most Editors do not have the time to transform your work into publishable material (except us! We have all the time in the world) so they would most likely throw your work in the trash.
