Permission to Write

Who We Are

Our goal is to cultivate the craft of independent Black writers and writers of color, give them space to create, a platform to amplify their voices, and a community to support their journey. We do this through our educational masterclasses, mentorship program, and membership community. We want to help readers find their new favorite writer and help writers grow and find new audiences for their work.
