Anthology participation
Participating in novum publishing’s anthology offers an affordable opportunity for writers to showcase excerpts of their work and increase their visibility within the literary community. Our multilingual anthologies present readers with a diverse array of contemporary texts across various genres, without thematic limitations, thereby reflecting the breadth of current literary trends.
Inclusion in these collections is particularly advantageous for authors, as the anthologies are featured at major book fairs, providing excellent promotional opportunities. Additionally, the works are submitted to magazines, television, and radio stations for review, further enhancing their exposure. The books are readily available in bookstores, on platforms like Amazon, and directly through novum publishing’s popular online shop, ensuring easy access for interested readers.
Authors aiming to broaden their reach and be part of a collection that embodies the diversity and dynamism of contemporary literature may find our anthology to be a valuable stepping stone in their literary careers.

By submitting your data for participation in the anthology, you confirm that you agree to the conditions for publication, that you own the reproduction rights to the texts and images and that you do not infringe any copyrights or personal rights. Should any third party assert a violation of personal rights, copyrights, or other rights, the publisher is entitled to remove the affected text from the anthology. If, during the editing process, it becomes apparent that texts contain unlawful, discriminatory, or historically problematic content, or that problematic claims are made without sufficient sources, the publisher reserves the right to remove or adapt such texts in whole or in part. Should you wish to change your printed name or subsequently use a pseudonym after the proof has been sent, we will charge £45 per change. In the event of cancellation by the author, 30% of the invoice amount will be charged if the work has not yet been proofread, and 70% after proofreading. All prices exclude VAT in British pounds. If you encounter any issues, please contact us directly at anthology@novum-publishing.co.uk .
