Member Books in Print - Submission Guidelines - Qualifications
Children's Books
All books listed on the Southern Breeze website are for CHILDREN. Adult books are not listed, as there are many organizations that list adult publishing credits; some may list both genres. Southern Breeze focuses on the children's market.

However, books for the adult genre are permissible when a tie can be made to kids. Children's market guides or family publications, which of course include kids' issues and entertainment, are acceptable.

Traditional Publishers
To conform with the professional standards of SCBWI, we no longer list print-on-demand or self-published books, unless they meet the SCBWI criteria for Full Member qualifications which is sales of at least 1,000 copies. Books by traditional publishers have top priority.

Staying Power
A book may remain on this list as long as:
it remains in print
it is not disqualified for any reason
author's/illustrator's SCBWI membership remains current
author/illustrator remains living in the Southern Breeze Region

Protect Yourself
If a SCBWI, Southern Breeze member is contacted by an unfamiliar publisher or agency, obtain as much information about them as you can. Ask publishers for a catalog, who distributes their books, and in what bookstores you can find them. Ask agencies which authors and illustrators they represent, what published books they have placed and with which publishers. Legitimate businesses will respond without hesitation. SCBWI recommends that members be wary of publishers who hold out the promise of publication provided the writer works with a specified literary agent, or asks for a fee. The SCBWI membership list is for members only. Use of our roster to solicit manuscript submissions is entirely unauthorized.
