About PubliWrite

PubliWrite is where authors write a book, publish it and earn from it. They can write in the built-in editor, import a Word document or PDF, or upload a finished EPUB or print-ready PDF. Co-authors and editors can work on the same chapter, and there is also a tool for keeping track of characters. A Storefront is the author's own website, where readers buy the books. It is built from a template and has its own checkout, and readers can join the author's newsletter while they pay. Going live needs a paid plan and a domain for the site. The lower paid plan collects newsletter sign-ups. Writing and sending newsletters is on the top plan only. One manuscript is formatted as an eBook, paperback, hardcover and PDF, with 20 themes and more than 1,800 Google Fonts. The cover designer handles the front, spine and back. Print editions get an ISBN and barcode, included on paid plans. Books can go out under pen names, and authors can order copies of their own print books with no minimum. Books are also listed on PubliRead, PubliWrite's own book shop for readers. PubliWrite does not list them with other retailers. Paperbacks and hardcovers are printed to order and shipped to readers in more than 150 countries. Authors keep 80% to 95% of each digital sale, depending on plan, and the same rate applies to print after the print cost. Earnings are paid into a bank account through Stripe.
