Foreword
We are delighted that you selected Layla Publishing Platform to be the portal through which you present your writings to the world. Thank you very much.
Before you go further, we should state that our platform is dedicated towards distributing knowledge and literature to everyone all around the world. That means our target audience includes adults, children, and people from different ethnic and religious backgrounds. We aim to respect the beliefs of all who are using our platform. Thus we ask you to consider the following:
- Do not submit to us any books or material that contains nudity, sexuality, or pornography in any shape or format, be it visual or written.
- We appreciate the effort you did while writing your book, but we will not accept books that are discriminatory against any group or individual, nor will we accept books that promote hate or crime.
- Keep your language disciplined. This is a general rule around the platform, be it in the chatrooms, in your reader reviews, in your contact with the authors, or in your book-to-be-published.
Before you submit
To make life easier for both of you and ourselves, please make sure you follow these steps before submitting your book to us:
- All books must have at least one author. You can have up to 8 authors per title (including the primary author).
- Do not use any macros of scripts in your manuscript file.
- If your book contains images (e.g. photos, figures, shapes, flow charts, etc) it would be better to not embed them inside your manuscript file. Software like MS Office usually compresses embedded images to reduce size. This will not make us reject your book, but you might not get the result you imagined when you submitted the book.
- If your book contains images, each image must have a name that is clearly indicated right below the image.
- If your book contains tables, each table must have a title that is clearly indicated right above the table.
- When you structure your book try to keep everything organized as Chapters, where each Chapter contains Sections and Sub-sections. You can organize the text such as:
Chapter 1
Section 1.1
Sub-section 1.1.1
Section 1.2
etc.

The review process
We review every book submission to make sure you conform to our
content policy. We target a wide audience and we need to make sure all the material accessible through our platform is appropriate. That doesn't mean we are going to review the content for scientific correctness for example, we just need to know what we are publishing on our platform. The review process takes from 5 to 7 days on average. If your book is accepted for publication, you will be notified through email as well as through your message inbox, which you can access from our app.
