11 / 30  ·  Private, scarce & signature work

Confessions, regrets and unsaid truths, turned into literature and published without your name.

There are stories people cannot attach to their names and still need to put somewhere in the world. A confession. A regret. The truth about a marriage, a betrayal, a choice, a version of yourself nobody knows existed.

You tell it privately. I shape it into literature and, only with clear consent and agreed boundaries, it may be published without your name. The purpose is not spectacle and anonymity is treated with seriousness. This is a place for truth that needs craft before it can bear the light.

How we work

  1. You reach out. Share the photograph, the person, the situation or the fragment - as much or as little as you can bear to. There is no correct brief.
  2. We agree the scope. Before anything is written, we settle what the piece is, its length and its intention. The commission is confirmed with a 50% advance.
  3. I write. The work is made for you alone, delivered within 10–21 working days after consent and scope are agreed. One considered revision is included so the words land exactly where they should.

Scope & confidentiality

Every commission begins with an agreed scope - what will be written, its length, its tone and its purpose - so there are no surprises on either side. Nothing is begun before that scope and the advance are settled together.

What you share stays private. Your story, your materials and the finished writing are treated as yours alone and are never published, resold or used elsewhere without your explicit, written consent. Where a commission is anonymous by design, that anonymity is protected without exception.

Before you commission

The practical details, without making you decode the poetry.

The literary opening tells you what the service feels like. These answers tell you exactly how it works, what is delivered and where the boundaries sit.

What is this service?

A private confession, regret or unsaid truth transformed into literature and published without the contributor’s name, only with explicit consent.

Who is it for?

People who want the emotional truth to exist publicly while keeping their identity and identifying details protected.

What will I receive?

An edited literary piece with the agreed anonymity treatment and publication decision documented before release.

How does the interview or briefing work?

The story can be shared in writing or conversation; identifying details, consent, risk and the boundary between truth and allegation are reviewed before writing.

What information or material should I prepare?

The core experience, details that may be used, details that must be changed or removed, and explicit permission for the final publication form.

How long does it take?

The current typical delivery window shown for this service is 10–21 working days after consent and scope are agreed. Timing begins after the agreed interview and source material are complete.

What does it cost?

The current listed fee is On enquiry. 50% to begin. Any change in length, research, number of interviews, urgency, design or commercial rights is agreed before additional work begins.

How many revisions are included?

One included. Revision is for factual, tonal or emphasis adjustments within the accepted brief; a different audience, form or central direction may require a new scope.

How is confidentiality handled?

Private material is used only for the agreed commission. RDC Unsaid does not publish, quote, reuse or turn the work into a portfolio example without explicit written permission.

Who owns and may use the final writing?

The finished work is supplied for the use agreed in the commission. Personal sharing is normally part of that purpose; public, commercial, adaptation and attribution rights should be recorded in the accepted scope or agreement.

When might this not be the right service?

Material that identifies or endangers another person, makes unsupported accusations, or cannot be responsibly anonymised may be declined.
