Brighter • Books for a Better Future

Back to Themes

The Publishizer Winter 2025 theme, Brighter: Books for a Better Future, is a call for ideas and stories that inspire hope, spark curiosity, and envision a brighter tomorrow. We are seeking new book proposals that explore the possibilities of positive change through fiction, non-fiction, or innovative storytelling, inviting authors to share books that illuminate the path forward and shape a better future.

We invite submissions for books that imagine a brighter tomorrow—whether through social reform, personal triumph, or speculative futures—encouraging both visionary fiction and actionable non-fiction. Stories should navigate change by focusing on characters or individuals dealing with pivotal transitions in their personal lives, careers, or societal roles, while exploring themes of adaptability, leadership, and perseverance. Additionally, we welcome works that emphasize improvement and hope, focusing on self-betterment, community building, and resilience in adversity. Whether lighthearted and uplifting or profound and inspiring, these stories should reflect the potential for meaningful change.

Publishizer is Seeking Submissions in the Following Categories and Genres:

Non-Fiction:

  • Self-Help: Practical guides for improvement and navigating change.

  • Social Commentary: Insights into creating a better, more equitable world.

  • Professional Development: Tools for leadership and building inclusive workplaces.

  • Wellness and Lifestyle: Embracing habits and mindsets for a brighter tomorrow.

  • Memoirs: Personal journeys that inspire and motivate.

Fiction:

  • Literary Fiction: Deep explorations of humanity and transformation.

  • Speculative Fiction: Envisioning innovative futures and social progress.

  • Contemporary Fiction: Stories of personal growth and change.

  • Historical Fiction: Highlighting moments of societal or personal resilience.

  • Romance: Celebrating love as a force for hope and change.

Young Adult and Children’s Literature:

  • Coming-of-Age Tales: Centered on hope, growth, and finding one’s place in the world.

  • Picture Books and Middle Grade: Inspiring stories of courage and kindness.

Poetry and Anthologies:

  • Works that evoke optimism, celebrate resilience, or explore new perspectives.

You will receive a confirmation email from one of our book agents. By submitting a proposal and signing up to Publishizer, you agree to the terms and conditions and to our data policy.
