The Gateway to the Intellectual Vault

What We Are Looking For

1. We accept submissions across four core tracks: Hybrid, Self-Publishing, Modern Distribution, and Traditional (Foundation). Our interest spans:

2. Non-Fiction: Leadership, Socio-Economics, Global Development, Memoirs of Impact, and Technical Research.

3. Fiction: Visionary Fiction, Cultural Narratives from the Global South/Asia/Oceania, and stories that "Reframe" the human experience.

4. Poetry: Works of profound rhythm and cultural significance that resonate with the DPG mission.

5. Academic & Educational: Modern curricula, TVET manuals, and University-level research.

Submission Readiness (The Blueprint)

Authors ready to take their place among the “Living Legends” must ensure their manuscript meets our production standards:

1. Manuscript Length: Minimum length is 100 pages (approx. 40,000 words) and maximum length is 500 pages (approx. 200,000 words).

NB: On special occasions, we can accept manuscripts of 80 pages (approx. 32,000 words).

2. Format Specification: Metrics are based on a Microsoft Word document, 12pt Times New Roman, on an A4 layout. Files must be in .docx format.

3. Genre Policy: We welcome submissions across all genres and academic disciplines. However, please note that DADYMINDS does not publish Horror or works containing sexualism of any kind.

4. The "Big Eight" Alignment: Does your work solve a problem, preserve a culture, or innovate a field? We prioritize work that has "Vault Potential."

5. Understanding Our Numbers: For calculation purposes, one page is equivalent to 400 words, formatted as 12pt Times New Roman, on an A4 layout page in Word Docx
