Work With Us
At Underwood & Lyle, we believe publishing is more than output — it’s collaboration. From fiction to nonfiction, audio to design, every voice we elevate is supported by a chorus of skilled, thoughtful contributors. If you share our passion for meaningful stories and meticulous craft, we’d love to hear from you.
Who We Work With
We’re currently open to collaborating with:
Editors – developmental, line, copyediting, and proofreading
Designers – cover designers, book layout artists, branding specialists
Illustrators & Photographers – for covers, interiors, and digital campaigns
Sensitivity Readers – across a range of identities and lived experiences
Audio Professionals – narrators, editors, and sound designers
Marketing & Launch Strategists – digital marketing, ad buyers, and street team organizers
Community Builders – newsletter collaborators, social content creatives, and more
Agents, Scouts, and Literary Allies – who want to champion bold, resonant work
We’re especially interested in partnering with creatives who are underrepresented in traditional publishing and passionate about intentional storytelling.
