What's your story?
This new website will be launched in July 2004 with the aim of helping unpublished writers to expose their talent and material. They can use the website to get information on publishing their material, make use of the editing services, get to know other members and even become a publishing member themselves. Free membership will be offered to writers, poets and illustrators in order to offer a centre for unpublished materials.
The site will have editing services made up of voluntary editors and paid for professional editors. A print on demand option will be available for self-publishing as well. These titles and other best sellers will be for sale on the site.
Online and offline courses will be offered on the site for those who would like to better their skills in creative or business writing. These courses will be charged at a minimum fee. As the site grows, discounts will be brought in as well. Book clubs will be welcome to join the site and list themselves on it, or create new ones.
Book launches, new releases; conferences and other events can be listed on an events calendar that will be available on the site as well. The site will be running monthly competitions for various sections on the site, e.g. poetry, play writing, short story sections etc. Prizes will be given to the finalists.
