From The Bookseller:

Hachette UK has launched a new diversity initiative, a creative writing hub called The Future Bookshelf, to make publishing more accessible for writers who feel they aren’t well represented by the industry.

The initiative aims to "demystify publishing", by guiding users of the website through the process of writing, editing, submitting and publishing, and will offer monthly tips and shareable infographics from its own authors and other experts.

It will also hold an open submissions period from 1st - 7th December this year for writers who are both unpublished and unagented and "feel the industry doesn’t adequately represent people from their background or with their experiences". They may be authors of either novels or non-fiction.
