Welcome to New-Author.com!
New-Author.com is a unique Internet
online publishing service which we sponsor as a courtesy and for the exclusive
purpose of supporting new writers and new authors. We are unique because we don't
charge for our service, you receive all income for each sale, you retain your
copyright granting us only a non-exclusive right so we an offer your story or
book on the website, and our only interest and intent is to help you reach your
market and your readers. We are also developing a component to allow authors
to read their books online for their readers as part of our New Author Podcast
Publishing department. Check back often for OPENING DAY!
New Author's Fundamental Philosophy:
*
New Author believes in the traditional publishing concept with a twist: our publications
are all online,you keep all income, we pay all expenses for this site, and we
do not intend to earn any income or be reimbursed for what we pay. We assume all
financial risks and all expenses and we don't make a profit or intend to earn
any income by providing this site or by publishing your book. This service is
for the sole purpose of helping you get your book to the public and the market,
nothing more.
*
The author pays no fees to have their book published. There's no pay-to-publish
at New Author, ever, at any time. We want your book and your stores, not your
money.
*
Our CONCEPT is simple. You upload your work, a summary synopsis of the work, a
biography about who you are, you price your work, and we do the rest. All we require
is that you price your work between free and $4.99. Once we have received your
completed story, we post your synopsis and the first few pages for others to read.
If they like what they read, there is a link which takes them to the simply online
store where they can download the remainder for the price you have chosen. If
you decided to charge for your story, and the reader has decided to pay for it,
we collect the amount paid, and remit the entire amount to you without any deductions
by us. We use paypal exclusively, so if Paypal deducts a small fee, we remit the
net amount to you, but we keep nothing.
*
Why should you place and publish your book or story online with us? Because we
don't limit where else you expose your creation, we don't charge to promote your
work, we pay all expenses associated with the website, there are no hidden costs
to you, you keep the copyright, you can withdraw / remove your submission / publication
at any time, and we strongly urge you to also pursue all other avenues available
to you. You can submit works in any language.
We provide a safe venue for interested authors and writers, young and old, that
want to publish online (along with hardcopy publishing by others if they choose)
so others can read your works.
Why you ask would we do this? Because it makes us feel good to contribute back
what we can. We have been offering similar services to children around the world
at ArtShowForKids.com and because of our interest now in publishing childrens'
books, we decided to expand the idea to provide all new writers and authors a
chance to self-publish for free so their works would be available to their intended
readship. We accept novels, short stories, scripts (for stage, feature film, TV
movies, sitcoms, documentaries, etc.), poetry, non-fiction material, plays, and
as I mentioned are particularly interested in books for the younger market, (children,
juvenile, young adult).
Because we have an an interest in childrens' books and because we promote a kids
art site at Art Show For Kids.com,
we do not accept pornographic literature on our site.
You've probably been bothered by countless self proclaimed literary agents who
have suddenly discovered you and want to work with you, tons of emails and internet
advertising by companies that want your money and will then "publish" your work,
or demands to pay a substantial up front sum for preparation of the "business
plan" or some other ruse. We've even heard stories about how some work with a
"book doctor" who, upon the recommendation of the bogus literary agent, offers
to help you rewrite your work to make it "more acceptable for publishers." Give
me a break! Some of these companies even provide a convenient credit plan and
accept all major credit cards. We will never ask you for your credit card, or
to pay us anything, or to put up any money as part of our service. Honest literary
agents do not solicit in this devious manner. They are busy enough with their
regular clients and rarely respond to new authors. Publishers too are difficult
to reach. New-Author.com gives you a chance to expose your work and other publishers
and readership a chance to see what you've got.
