To Be Read is a social enterprise dedicated to improving diversity, equity and inclusion in UK publishing

Because your story deserves to told

To Be Read has been set up to tackle the ongoing lack of fair representation within the UK publishing industry. Our strategy works in two ways:

1) We provide pay-what-you-can editorial support to unpublished and self-published writers

 and

2) We help alleviate the pressure on publishers and literary agencies who want to help fix these issues, but don't have the time or resource to do so.
