Madrona Books is an independent publisher based in Washington State. Our mission is to connect conscientious readers to the best, most inventive stories they haven't yet discovered.

As of 2025, Madrona Books has revamped our calls for submission. If your manuscript does not fit one of our current calls for submission (memoir+, short story collections, <80,000-word novels, literary+ novels, and PNW miscellany), we’d encourage you to identify a better-suited publisher via CLMP’s directory of small presses. Otherwise, please submit below. Thank you.
