We publish and sell paperback and hardcover novellas and novels direct to the reader, while paying you double and, in some cases, triple current industry royalty rates and offering you the opportunity to take an active part in the pricing strategy for their titles.
Publishers seem to have limited themselves to sales ceilings based on past performances.
Elastic pricing, among other elements embraced by our model, will provide that enticement. Since the beginning, the book establishment has controlled the fate of authors, exerting tremendous sway over these writers' fortunes and their ability to affect their marketplace and their readership. We believe the time has come for the return of power to its rightful holders - the authors and their readers. 399Novel aims to be the leading organization that will bring authors and readers together, seamlessly and manageably, in a new and sensible economic order for the print book industry. Subject to discussion with our authors and within the constraints of our competitive landscape, our prices can be as high as the market will comfortably and acceptably bear.
