About Us

Our philosopy is to create a worldwide market for new English literature.

We have identified a need for authors to find a simple, economic, way of selling their work as eBooks.

We want to concentrate on publishing authors who have written a novel, but who have yet to interest a publisher; or who are prepared to publish the book themselves, but find the costs prohibitive. Those who have already published on paper are also welcome, but must have retained the electronic rights for their work.

The eBook provides possibilities which did not exist before. There are always far more good books than there are publishing openings, but not any more. eBooksforpleasure can now deliver, and open up possibilities that did not exist before.

Just because an author cannot find a publisher does not necessarily mean their book is no good. It means there is not enough capacity to go through the high cost route of paper publishing and bookstore marketing. Vanity, or self-publishing, may sometimes be sneered at, but often represents a sincere attempt for an author to get published. Despite the costs, and the huge marketing effort needed, these self-publishers often achieve good sales of good books. But, of course, not all can afford self-publishing, and here again, we can offer a publishing possibility.

eBooksforpleasure.com sells books formatted in ePUB, Mobi, and also, in some cases, as PDFs. We aim to sell eBooks for no more than US $7.99 (approx. €5.83/UKP5.00). We think this is a fair price at which we will maximise sales. The author receives a royalty of 50% gross on every copy sold.

If books are short, or if the author particularly wishes, a lower price will be levied, and we will keep the pricing structure under review. We are interested in volume not high prices.

All books have designated ISBN numbers, and are are fully listed.

If you are an author who is interested in publishing with us please see Notes for Authors for more information and for details of submission requirements.

This is a great time for the unpublished!
