Submission of manuscripts

The Editorial Destellos catalog is aimed mainly at children and youth. We do not publish textbooks, technical books or self-help books. We request that those interested in sending us publication proposals please first familiarize themselves with our mission and work.

Editorial Destellos accepts unpublished manuscripts through calls that are published annually. The call for 2023 will take place from June 5, 2023 with a deadline for submission of July 31, 2023.
