Assisted writing

The hardest part of a first book is opening it

Tell us the book in your own words — the title you keep using, the name you want readers to see, the cover you picture. We open the account, create the book unpublished, put the brief in front of the people who make covers, and hand you a blank first page with the editor already open. Nothing reaches a reader until you and our team say so.

Write the first page Five short steps. No card is asked for, and the book stays hidden until you say it is ready.

Page one. It takes your title as you type it below.

What happens when you press it

Three things, in this order. None of them is a quotation, and none of them waits until you have finished writing.

  1. Your book is created

    A real entry in the catalogue, unpublished, carrying your title, language, genre and name. Readers and search engines cannot see it until staff activate it — which is also when the cover goes on.

  2. The brief goes to the people who make books

    Your cover note, your biography, your portrait and the way you work are filed together, so nobody has to ask you the same question twice. Staff see the book and the brief on one screen.

  3. You land on page one

    The reader opens with the editor live. Write a chapter, save it, close the tab, come back to the same paragraph. Add the next chapters as the book grows, and watch the count of words move.

What we ask you

The book
A title, a genre, a language and a paragraph about what it is. Two words are enough to begin with; the paragraph is what staff read first.
You, on the page
The name readers will see and the biography beneath it. If listing your works reads better to you than writing about yourself, list them and we will assemble the paragraph.
The cover you picture
A description, not a design. What must be in the picture, what it should feel like, and anything that must not appear.
How you work
Your tone, and whether you write chapter by chapter, lay an outline first, or get a whole draft down. This changes the help you are given, never your book.

Start the book

This is the wizard the platform’s own authors use, and on this page it is also the thing that opens your account. Where it says needed, we cannot file the book without it.

The book

Two words and a paragraph. If the title is not settled yet, write the one you keep using — the rest of the form is worth more to us than a perfect title.

This becomes the book's web address, so ordinary letters and numbers read best: The Lantern Tower becomes /book/the-lantern-tower. Write it in Arabic if the book is in Arabic — the address will be in Arabic too.

An episode series grows one chapter at a time. Staff approve its first publication; after that, saved chapters and changes are visible to readers. Finishing a series does not turn it into a standalone complete-book release.

    The genre picks the book's colors and fonts and decides who finds it in the library. Staff can change it; picking a real one now means your book arrives already looking like itself.

    Arabic books are laid out right-to-left, get Arabic fonts and an Arabic reader voice automatically. There is nothing else to set.

    This is what a reader sees before deciding to open the book. Two or three sentences that say what the book does for someone. Leave it empty and write it later — it is the paragraph most authors revise.

    You, on the page

    This is the page that carries your name. The words you write here are shown exactly as you write them.

    A real name or a pen name — whatever should appear on the cover. It gets its own author page, and books you publish later can share it.

    Your photograph

    Not yet — the photograph is uploaded by an account, and yours is made when you press start. It takes a minute, on the same page you land on.

    Write it the way you would tell a stranger at a table. A blank line between paragraphs is kept as a paragraph. We tidy the shape, never the substance: your text, your facts, and staff can polish it with one click.

    One work a line. Title (Year): a sentence — the year and the sentence are both optional, and a dash in front is fine. They are listed under your biography on the author page. Up to 25, one line of 300 characters each.

    The cover you picture

    You are not designing it — you are describing it. The cover is made after this by the platform, and what you write here is what it is made from.

    Say what must be in the picture, what it should feel like, and anything that must not appear. Plain description works better than style names. Your own summary is sent along with it, so short is enough.

    How you write

    These two change the help you are given, not your book. Nothing writes for you here.

    Writing style needed

    The tone your book keeps. This is the same list the platform's own writing tools use, so a style you choose here means one thing, not three.

    How you will work needed
    Start the book

    Here is what happens when you press it, in this order: your book is created, you are given the right to write in it, the brief goes to the staff who make the cover, and you land on a blank first page with the editor open. Nothing is published to readers until you and staff say so.

    Nothing is published by this form, and nothing is charged. Your book is created hidden, and page one opens as soon as you press it.

    Before you hand it over

    Does somebody else write it?

    No. The word is the trade’s shorthand for what happens here: the book is prepared around your text. Our team makes the cover, the author page and the formatting; the writing stays yours, and the platform’s tools are there whenever you want a hand with a paragraph.

    Who owns the book?

    You do. It is created with you as its author, on an account only you can sign into, and it remains private until you ask staff to publish it. Your name is the one on the title page, and the biography under it is the one you wrote.

    What does it cost?

    You can open an unpublished draft here without a card. AI-assisted writing and publishing by episodes require a Ghostwriting or Author membership. Ghostwriting costs the same as Scholar, with no extra writing fee. Creating a draft does not subscribe you; ask our team to arrange membership on your existing account.

    Can I publish a complete manuscript?

    Ghostwriting is for a series written and shared chapter by chapter, not importing or releasing a standalone complete book. A finished series stays a series. The Author plan includes both complete books and publishing by episodes.

    Do new episodes add AI credits?

    Not automatically. Our team may add credits manually when needed, taking reader engagement and new members brought to the platform into account. Writing an episode does not guarantee extra credits.

    Why an email and a password at the end?

    Because the book has to live somewhere. We ask last on purpose: the account is created when you press the button, and the one confirmation mail that follows is what lets you come back tomorrow and find the page where you left it.

    Open the file

    A title, a paragraph and an email address. That is the whole of it, and page one is on the other side of it.
