Seeking Purpose-Driven Authors!
Paradise Rivers Publishing is a nonprofit press partnering with authors who want to help the next generation discover their God-given purpose. If your book shares stories of faith, calling, perseverance, or hope—and inspires readers to live out God’s design for their lives—we’d love to hear from you.
We are currently welcoming both fiction and nonfiction manuscripts from authors who feel called to mentor the next generation through their writing. Whether you’re sharing a powerful story or offering guidance from experience and faith, we’re honored to consider your work.
We also welcome submissions from young writers (ages 24 and under) who are courageously using their voices to uplift, encourage, and disciple their peers.
We accept most genres, except romance, horror, and mysticism.
If your manuscript carries a message of purpose, faith, and legacy, we invite you to upload your one-sheet to our submission portal.

We invite you to walk beside us as we publish works that help young hearts grow in faith and discover their purpose in God’s Kingdom.
