Publishing and reclaiming the unique and authentic stories of Black, Brown, BIPOC and LQBTUIA2+ Writers and Authors.
Project Description
THE PROBLEM
When you go to your local bookstore you want to find a book that represents you, our at the very least acknowledges your existence. The hard truth is that most books readily available are more than likely from the viewpoint of a straight white Cis woman perspective. The publishing industry has a diversity problem which ultimately reflects the books that we consume.
According to a 2019 Diversity in literature survey by leeandlow.com
- Less than 25% of the publishing industry overall are POC
- 26% have a gender identity of anything other than Cis woman
- 19% have a sexual orientation of anything other than straight
- 11% identify as having a disability.

Our Solution
Creating a publishing company ROOTED IN DIVERSITY. We are Black owned and Women Lead team on industry professionals who see the need for more representation in literature. We are doing things differently by offering publishing opportunities to under represented writers whose stories are often over looked by major publishing companies. The Literary Publishing house not only wants to bring exposure to underrepresented authors and writers, but also provide consulting services so that their product is brought to market on the highest level.
