Publish your book free and grow your readership.

You do not need a printed book to begin your writing journey. With a free NiceBooksReads account, publish your first chapter or upload a finished manuscript. Reach readers, invite your community to read and explore reading-based revenue sharing for eligible books. Publishing is free; earnings depend on programme rules and genuine reading activity.

  1. 01

    Write chapters or upload a manuscript

    Start with one chapter and add more to the same book. Upload PDF, Word (DOCX), EPUB or TXT, then edit the cover, summary and genre. Publish now makes your book and new published chapters available without separate approval. Drafts remain private until you choose to publish.

  2. 02

    Invite your circle and connect with readers

    Share your book link with friends, social followers and interested reading groups. Invite readers to follow you, write honest reviews and share favourite short quotations. Regular chapters and thoughtful conversation can help more people discover your book.

  3. 03

    Understand reading-based earnings

    Eligible completed books can receive a share of the author revenue pool through verified full reads by active paid members. Not every click or free read earns money; self-reads and invalid activity do not count. Amounts depend on period revenue and programme rules. Track activity and earnings status in your author workspace.

Community reading and publishing are free. Full ebook and audiobook access follows each edition’s terms; creation studios use separately paid credits. Upload only content you have the right to publish. Scanned PDFs need OCR first; older Word .doc files need conversion to DOCX.

From your first reader to a lasting author community

Free self-publishing is a starting point. A clear book page, consistent updates and genuine reader relationships can help an emerging author build visibility.

Make your book page count

Write an engaging summary that accurately represents the story. Choose its genre and language, and add a legible cover. Check spelling and paragraph breaks in your first chapter. Readers can choose more confidently when they know what to expect.

Keep invitations personal and welcome

Accompany the book link with a short introduction and a reason to read. Use channels where your message is welcome and respect group rules. Invitations, follows and likes alone do not generate payment. Focus on real readers, not artificial accounts or review-swapping arrangements.

Listen to readers and keep developing your story

Choose a chapter schedule you can sustain. Respond respectfully to comments, consider useful feedback and share new-chapter updates with the book link. Track readership separately from earnings: an ongoing book can build an audience, while revenue eligibility also requires completion and the programme’s conditions.
