I have an arabian fantasy "scimitar-fu" setting* in the works for the True20 setting search. I am a freelancer and not interested in becoming my own publisher (though I will if it's the only way to enter my setting, darn it!
).
Are there any publishers who would be interesting in taking my setting under their wing, essentially sponsoring it for the setting search?
I am now editing down 20,000 words, and can provide you with a sample if you're interested.

*Scimitar-Fu: If you are unfamiliar with the Arabian Nights, the term “scimitar-fu” should bring to mind devious genies twisting the wording of wishes, cunning damsels quick with sword and spell, mistaken identity in the harem, mad sultans, flying carpet chases, outrageously lucky escapes, assassin plots, heretical cults, nobles hiding among the populace, death-defying horse races, haggling in the bazaar, bluffing with bedouin, getting cursed, shapeshifting duels, enchanting storytellers, and scimitar wielding princes swapping witty repartees. It is a world based on a time that never quite was during the reign of Caliph Harun al-Rashid, the pious tyrant. Though it resembles closely the Sassinid empire of 800 CE, it mixes fact and fantasy into a unique new landscape.
