Common Ties

Want to release your innermost thoughts and feelings to possibly secure a book deal?  Then Common Ties might be for you.

Who They Are: Common Ties (commonties.com), is looking for illustrated submissions to insert in their upcoming book, set for release in 2010.

What They Want: Common Ties is looking for illustrated submission answering one of their twenty questions on the website.  The answer must be 50 words or less — but this shouldn’t be a problem if you’re already accustomed to twittering.

When They Want It: Common Ties is accepting submissions until November 1, 2009.  Submit illustrated submissions to CT20Questions@gmail.com.

This is a verified lead. I strongly recommend looking at the current submissions posted on their website to get a ‘feel’ of what they want.

You are not required to be a great author to get accepted for the book.  Be yourself.  Make sure it is unique, punchy, and to the point.  Add your emotions into it, don’t be afraid to let it all out.

Common Ties is only accepting submissions until November 1, 2009 however, so hurry up before it’s too late!
