Iro Books is the e-book-only imprint of Stone Bridge Press, Inc., a leading publisher of books about Asia, especially Japan and China. "Iro" is the Japanese word for "color," and we chose iro to identify our publishing line because it signifies our Japan connection and is used in many Japanese terms related to physical passion and sensuality (what you might call Japanese "iro-tica").
We invite submissions for novels ranging from 25,000 to 80,000 words, with Japan- and Asia-related locales and protagonists. We are looking for works of literary quality that are er0tic, intelligent, and stimulating, with real places and real people.
WE ARE INTERESTED IN:
