Submitting your work

Submitting your work for review
CCLaP is dedicated to featuring and reviewing as many underground artistic projects as possible, especially self-published ones, although be aware from the start that there is no absolute guarantee that your project will be featured or reviewed here. Books being submitted for review should be no older than 18 months to be considered; websites or other electronic projects should be ongoing ones that have been recently updated. Yes, self-publishers, an electronic copy of your book is fine! Send all materials to cclapcenter [at] gmail.com, or write to obtain CCLaP's physical mailing address. Our reviewers also belong to SmashWords.com and NetGalley.com, so are happy to accept manuscripts that way as well.

My apologies, but CCLaP currently does not accept either poetry or children's books for review.
