Questions
Do I pay anything up front?
No. Books are printed on demand, so there is no print run to buy and no setup fee for a title.
Who sets the price?
You propose it and we agree it with you before the book goes on sale. Your workspace shows what you earn on each copy as you choose.
When do I get paid?
Each sale becomes payable 30 days after the reader paid. Within 30 days of each quarter end we pay what is payable, once it reaches £25. Smaller amounts carry forward.
Will I see who bought my book?
Not for ordinary orders. You see the book, the format and the country. The exception is a signed copy, where you need the name and address to post it. They disappear once you mark it sent.
Can I sell my book elsewhere?
Yes. You keep your copyright and our licence is not exclusive.
