Why would I sell my story?
There are a huge number of reasons people think ‘I’d like to sell my story.’ They range from gaining a sense of closure or achievement on an event that has happened, raising awareness or inspiring other people, to share what you’ve learned from life or to apply pressure to an official organisation.
Will I get paid if I sell my story?
Yes you will. Our job is to negotiate you the best fee for selling your story. Some of our sell my story clients have earned thousands, although how much you earn depends on what your story is, how many times it gets sold and which publications it ends up in.

We pay you following publication of your story.
