An Invitation: Sell Your LGBTQ+ eBooks on Read with Pride

Dear Author,

On behalf of Read with Pride, we are reaching out to invite you to join our dedicated e-book marketplace built specifically for the LGBTQ+ community and its allies.

Read with Pride is a vibrant, inclusive hub where writers of LGBTQ+ thematic content connect directly with readers who are actively seeking their stories. We believe your voice and work would be a fantastic addition to our growing platform.

Here is what Read with Pride offers you:

• Your Own Author Storefront: As a vendor, you receive a dedicated author page to build your brand and showcase your work. See an example here: Dick Ferguson’s Author Store
• Complete Creative Control: Our full Products Dashboard empowers you to easily add and edit your e-book listings. You can track your inventory status (Online, Draft, or Pending Review), monitor views, and manage your earnings—all from one central location.
• A Targeted Audience: We connect you with a community of passionate readers who are specifically looking for LGBTQ+ stories, helping your books get discovered by the right audience.
• Future-Proofed Selling: We are actively working to add print-on-demand services. This feature will be rolled out once we have sufficient demand in each country, ensuring we can offer the best possible local pricing for both you and your buyers.

We are building a platform for the community, by members of the community, and we would be honored to have you on board.

Would you be interested in receiving the vendor application link to get started?

Best regards,

The Read with Pride Team
