SUBMISSION GUIDELINES
- It must be a Morning Meditation – no stories or prayers. This book is specifically to be used as a daily Morning Meditation resource.
- You can copy and paste (or type) your entries into the submission form.
- We are unable to accept them as attachments or in any other format.
- Your Morning Meditation must be professionally edited prior to submission. If you would like us to edit it, there is a $10 fee. Simply check the box when entering your submission and pay the $10 fee. Your meditation must meet all of the requirements stated above as well.
- Submissions will be proofread, and if found to need more editing (not formatting) you will have the option to have us edit it for a $10 fee, or you will have two days to have it professionally edited and resubmit. Professional editing is approximately $30. Please be sure to check for typing, spelling and punctuation errors. Also, remember to maintain total word count under 300 words for the meditation and 50 words for bio.
SAMPLE MEDITATIONS
Things to remember when writing your meditation:
- A meditation is a written work intended to guide others in contemplation. Each person has their own style of meditation, therefore there is no wrong way.
- Please be mindful that you only have 300 words, so use your words wisely. A bunch of descriptive Do’s and Don’ts (find a comfortable seat, take a deep breath, relax your body) will use up a lot of words.
- Make sure your title is clear and to the point. It can be 8-10 words maximum!
- Remember, our intention is for people to start their day with our book. How do you want to guide them in starting their day?

As you can probably imagine, with over 100 authors, this is a very BIG project. Please read these guidelines and the submission requirements thoroughly. I have included everything I can think of to make this part of the process flow as gracefully as possible. One very important thing is the editing. We do not want meditation submissions that are not readable. Please do not have Uncle John read through and say ya, it looks good to me. This is a quality book and we want EXCELLENT quality.
Remember, the due date is 08/31/2017. Your submission must be in by midnight that night or you will forfeit your spot in the book as well as your $111 payment. Of course, we appreciate early submissions so we can begin the formatting of the meditations and get this book out into the world even sooner.
Our intention is to have the book ready for Holiday sales 🙂
