For Authors

Have a story to serialize?

We’re building Semana with writers at the center. Round 1 asks for a synopsis, a writing sample, and a series direction statement. No complete manuscript required- yet.

Open to agents and unagented authors alike.

All genres welcome, built for the episodic format.

Target response time is 45 days from receipt.

* How to Apply

  • Start with the Author FAQ. It covers rights, payments, episode length, and what our editors look for.

  • Then, complete the Submission Form. When you are ready upload the submission form and your manuscript in the form to the right.
