who we are

CMe Publish LLC specializes in coaching, editing, and consulting services for Black women writers at all stages of their careers. We address the gap in resources for Black women in the book industry by providing opportunities for them to share their voices in the literary world.

Our mission is to actively contribute to the empowerment, encouragement, and increase of publishing opportunities for black women. This is done by focusing on black female authorship, producing writer collaboration opportunities and the future development of mentorship and internship programs.

CMe Publish focuses on black female authorship because we believe women are empowered when they use their voices to tell their stories. We further believe that general knowledge and perception of black history and culture, in its diversity, will be enhanced through first-person recounts.

We aim to amplify the authorship of Black women and contribute to a more inclusive literary landscape.
