Book Sanctuary

Book Sanctuary, an e-publishing website, has now launched to the public. We want to achieve two primary goals with this website:

• Provide a platform for writers to publish their work, catering for a broad range of genres. We want to encourage and give opportunities to previously unpublished writers, as well as writers who want to publish in eBook format. It is a partnership, as writers published on our website receive a royalty of 50% of profits, with no setup or ongoing costs. Once publication is agreed the Author's membership includes full conversion of your book into three formats and a host of other benefits, details of which are in our submissions section. In addition we can provide proofreading and transcription services at highly competitive rates.

• Forge a substantial, diverse and vibrant online community of writers, readers and literary enthusiasts. With our free account setup, affordable eBooks, on-site forum, upcoming book review area, as well as accounts on Facebook and Twitter, we want to share writing and our passion for literature with as many people as possible. We also plan to introduce online 'author chats' and a literary eZine once the Book Sanctuary community and portfolio of eBooks has grown.

www.booksanctuary.co.uk is now going to spread the word as widely as possible, to build a literary community and attract submissions that will excite and challenge readers. All writing will be reviewed prior to publication, in order to ensure that talented, creative writers have an opportunity to share their writing with the world. Once publication is agreed with the author, their work will be published in pdf, ePub and Kindle ready mobi formats; a purchase of a book includes all file formats. Whether the reader wants to read on their PC or a mobile device, they will have the best reading experience possible.

The Book Store will launch soon with our first batch of eBooks, but in the meantime all new registrations on the website will receive free emailed copies of Alice's Adventures in Wonderland in all three formats. Book Sanctuary staff can be reached on the following details:
