I've restarted this issue rather than have it stuck in the YA novella thread.
Lobster Press describes their RR books as 15K to 25K and fast-paced, humorous, and mostly for boys. They seem to be targeting young adults who don't like typical YA novels, but might stay more interested with faster paced no-frill story lines.
I noticed that Orca seeks Reluctant Reader manuscripts as well. Also found some in the UK.
What I didn't find were any in the US. If anyone knows of a US publisher that is looking for young adult reluctant reader material, I'd sure like to know about them.
Thanks
Maurice
PS: I sent my American football RR manuscript (25K words) to Lobster press since they do have a US distribution arm. Canadian postage for 100 pages is under 8$ from Alabama.
