Mischief Corner Books wants romance novels and novellas for their Everyday Heroes fiction line. The editors write:
Everyone loves a man in uniform—the firefighter, the ER nurse, the naval officer, the small-town sheriff—or the every day person who takes heroic action. This house line is for the people who enjoy seeing our every day heroes get the guy of their dreams. We want a hero who has been through the ringer and back then gets the love he deserves. These stories have the great potential for external conflict—use it!

About Submission Calls
I post paying submission calls every Monday, Wednesday, and Friday. I focus on fiction calls, but occasionally post paying opportunities for creative nonfiction and poetry.
Browse more submission calls or tips for writers. You can sort calls by payment rate: token, semi-professional, professional, or royalties. To get a weekly roundup of all my posts for writers, sign up here.
I strive to ensure that all submission calls I post are open to works with characters from underrepresented groups, including queer/LGBTQIA characters. I do this by checking the publisher's back catalog, submissions policies, or business practices, or by communicating with the publisher directly.
Please contact the publisher through the links in the post if you have questions about a submission call. Contact me if you've had a bad experience with a publisher featured here.
