Submission Info
Black and White began accepting submissions on May 1st for those interested in having their books/short stories/poetry/flash fiction/picture books published as *Ubooks. Currently, priority will be given to flash fiction/picture books, because our research has shown that's the sweet spot for launching this crazy new idea that is a *Ubook. If you'd like to see what all this is about before diving in, our first picture book, Jellyfish Jones, is set to be released on June 29th.
Music is a major element in *Ubooks, which is why we are so excited to have Musical Director Nathan Moran on our team. Each *Ubook published will have an original musical score to enhance the story, which means submissions are not just open to writers and illustrators, but musicians as well. Any Questions? Feel free to email me at melanie@melanieschulz.com
*Ubooks are musically enhanced video books
See you on Friday-
That's smart to have original music created for each one.
ReplyDeleteWhat's the length of the fiction? Guess I should go read the submission guidelines...
The most popular time seems to be under 3 minutes, which would be under 750 words, so that's what we're aiming toward right now.
DeleteWhat an interesting idea! Who selects the music, or is it designed to reflect the story?
ReplyDeleteThanks! The music is composed for each individual story to enhance the mood--just like in movies. A tense scene would have tense music and so on.
