Submissions
Intergrateo Press began with one author and a single body of work. It is built to hold more. We are open to a small number of aligned writers each year.
What we publish
Near-future speculative horror, broadly drawn. Wifi horror is the house register, but the door is wider than that: psychological horror, quiet dread, speculative fiction that works on the nerves rather than the plot, and stories that take the present seriously enough to be frightened of it. We care less about subgenre than about voice, control, and a real reason for the book to exist.
What we are not
We are not a vanity press and we do not charge authors to publish. We are not a high-volume operation. We take few books because each one receives full attention. If your manuscript needs a machine, we are the wrong home. If it needs a careful, deliberate launch and a publisher who reads closely, we may be the right one.
Rights and terms
We work on transparent, author-favourable terms with clear reversion clauses. We do not take world rights as a matter of course. Specifics are discussed openly before any agreement, and we encourage every author to seek independent advice, including from the Australian Society of Authors.
