Mnemosyne Books
Mnemosyne Books is a new imprint of Saint Julain Press dedicated to publishing memoirs and autobiographies by and about women and their lives. We believe that authentic first-person narratives told from a woman’s perspective are transformative for both writers and readers. At a time when mainstream publishers are opting for safe bets on celebrity memoirs and influencers, we at Mnemosyne are committed to publishing the written works of ordinary women with extraordinary stories to share.
New submissions for memoirs to Mnemosyne Books must be sent to Elizabeth Cohen as part of our process. There is no formal reading period for these submissions. Please contact Elizabeth if you have a manuscript for consideration.
