Work With Us

The Reader Life is built around books, reading, discovery, and all the interesting places those things can take us.

We work with authors, publishers, brands, websites, apps, and digital platforms on projects that are relevant to our readers and fit naturally within the site.

Have a book you’d like us to review? Please visit The Review Desk for our book review guidelines and submission information.

Guest Contributions

Have something interesting to say about books, reading, writing, publishing, or the wider reading life?

We occasionally accept original guest contributions. Articles should be written specifically for The Reader Life, offer genuine value to readers, and fit our editorial style.

Send us a short pitch, your proposed topic or title, and a little about yourself. Previous writing samples are welcome.

Guest submissions are reviewed for editorial fit, and submission does not guarantee publication.

Brand Collaborations

We offer paid collaboration opportunities for relevant brands, websites, apps, and platforms.

Depending on the project, this may include:

  • Sponsored articles
  • Website or product features
  • Relevant resource guides
  • App and platform features
  • Custom editorial content

We don’t believe in forcing a product into an article simply because there’s a link to place. The best collaborations are the ones that make sense for the reader as well as the brand.

Book & Publishing Collaborations

Authors, publishers, and literary businesses can also work with us on relevant features, recommendations, campaigns, and other book-related projects.

For independent book reviews and review requests, please visit The Review Desk.

A Note on Editorial Content

We value editorial independence and transparency. Paid collaborations are identified appropriately, and payment does not guarantee a positive review or a particular editorial opinion.
