Publication
We shall diligently fact-check, copy-edit, and proofread your submission. Once your piece is accepted for publication, it will be published on ForAvidReaders and promoted across all our online channels.
Authors retain the rights to their work and are free to publish it elsewhere. We kindly request that if you republish a piece originally featured on ForAvidReaders, you acknowledge its initial publication with us.
Compensation
Regrettably, we are not currently able to provide monetary compensation to our writers. However, we wholeheartedly acknowledge the importance of compensation and are actively working towards resolving this matter. We have ongoing fundraising initiatives, and we aspire to commence payments to our writers as soon as these efforts succeed.
