Received the following response Jan 6, 2016

Dear Master Sergeant Dale Day,

Thank you so much for submitting your book idea to the University of Oklahoma Press. The novel sounds intriguing as well as important in terms of exploring the life of a contemporary Native soldier with PTSD. While the project merits publication, I fear the OU Press is not the right publisher for it. We rarely publish fiction given the unpredictable and volatile sales as well as the strong competition from commercial publishers. Thus, I suggest you contact the University of Arizona Press or the University of New Mexico Press since they publish fiction more frequently than we do.

I appreciate your thinking of the OU Press in regards to your publishing plans and wish you all the best in finding an appropriate publisher.

Best wishes,

Alessandra

Basically deals in scholarly works but did indicate it "might" take on other works of note.
