1. Review the manuscript as a reader
Check chapter order, headings, spelling, punctuation and missing or repeated passages. For Tigrinya, review the Ge’ez characters and word forms carefully. A knowledgeable editor can help with language consistency; a technical file check cannot replace an editorial review.
Keep a dated master copy and a separate file for submission. Use the file type and size requirements shown in the app. Preview the exported file on a small screen: chapter navigation, paragraph spacing and readable characters matter as much as the appearance of the original document.
2. Make the cover and details consistent
Use the same book title and author name on the cover, inside the book and in the submission details. Check that the title remains readable when the cover is shown as a small thumbnail. Use artwork you own or have permission to publish.
Write a description that explains the subject and intended reader without unsupported awards, sales claims or reviews. Select the actual language and a suitable category. For a translation or new edition, identify it accurately so readers know what they are choosing.
3. Confirm rights and read the agreement
You must own the work or have the authority to distribute it. Prepare the required rights information, including permissions relevant to the text, translation and cover. Read NEBABNA’s publishing agreement before submitting, including the net-proceeds calculation and payout conditions.
Submit from your author or authorized publisher profile. Keep a copy of the submitted materials and respond to review requests through the available workflow. If you need help before submitting, use the publishing topic on our contact form.
