Genres we focus on.
Flint Group Publishers is a complete publishing house that guides writers every step of the way. We are looking for writers who can leave a lasting impression on future generations—whether through wisdom, knowledge, or captivating tales.
We enjoy talking to our clients and learning what they want.
Large publishing firms are concerned about their profit margin and have their project managers juggling up to 95 authors at the same time. We are more concerned with helping our authors. and limit their client list to 15 active authors.
At the Flint Group, we have a screening process because we want to use our time working for our clients. We only accept manuscripts we know will be successfully published. After looking over your manuscript, your publishing manager will set up a time to call where they can get an understanding of what you expect and explain what we expect.
Publishing your manuscript is a partnership.
Fiction genres we are very interested in publishing.
While these descriptions are very straightforward, many manuscripts may include elements of more than one genre. In fact, most successful fiction involves a skilled interweaving of these subjects.
Children’s Picture Books: Adventures for readers under the age of 12 like fun images and an easy-to-follow plot.
Dramas: Plots where the reader can’t wait to turn the page to discover conflicts, emotions, and solutions.
Fantasy and Sci-fi: Tales where the reader can go to other dimensions, times, worlds, or spaces.
Historical: Yarns that the reader is inserted into with real characters and all aspects of that time.
Horror and Thrillers: Supernatural stories that may involve the reader with violence and disturbing imagery.
Mysteries: Suspenseful accounts setting the reader into a crime that creates tension but is usually solved by the end of the manuscript.
Romances: Involves the reader in a narrative that shows the passions, relationships, and difficulties faced between two people.
Young Adult: Storylines for readers usually 12-18 years old that focus on adolescent characters struggling with the unique problems of teenagers.
Non-fiction genres we are very interested in publishing.
Many of the following genres are for specific audiences, who will want tabletop books and textbooks, and require the author to have a way to reach these specific markets. The printing will need to be the highest quality on heavy stock for an image-heavy layout.

Do-It-Yourself, Crafts, Hobbies: Appeals to the reader who is skilled at making or repairing things.

Gardening: From growing crops to flowers and plants, it takes more than a green thumb for this manuscript subject to appeal to a wide audience.

Genres not in our expertise.
