LastPassage.com is an exciting and innovative way for new writers to a) get noticed, and b) earn money from their writing. All accepted books will be spell-checked, formatted for legibility and download, and have a bespoke cover designed. The cost for this service will be a very modest $5.00 to cover materials. After that, there is nothing more to pay! Books will then be available for free partial download (usually around a third to two thirds of the complete content). If the person who downloaded the work is suitably enthralled they can then pay to download the rest in a copy protected format far cheaper than the cost of a novel in the shops. This system will allow the author to showcase their work more adequately than a brief synopsis and hopefully get the reader hooked on their work.
We are currently inviting submission, in English, for short stories, novellas and complete novels of any length. These should be horror, science fiction or scientific fiction (such as Michael Crichton-style techno-thrillers). As submission, reading, cover design and hosting are all done for only $5.00, all books will be carefully hand-selected for inclusion and a profit-share agreement will then be entered into with the author prior to hosting. Our system will always ensure that the author of the work will a) receive the most profit and b) retain all copyrights in their work (though not the covers we design). We do not wish to make money at the author's expense - we will only make money if the author's themselves do, and that's the way it should be!
When the site is complete in the next few weeks, we will also have an exclusive members' area with superb competitions, forums, latest news from the horror/sci-fi/literary world, book and movie reviews as well as some great-looking mini-sites for our top-rated books with exceptional graphics, detailed synopses and author interviews. Please help writers worldwide by coming back to visit us again and reading their work.
In the meantime, if you feel you have some work worthy of inclusion (and remember you will retain all copyright) then please use some of your writing talent to drop us a line at submissions@lastpassage.com. We aim to have a fantastic range of work available on the site when we launch formally, and some of it could be yours! If have any other questions, please feel free to forward them to info@lastpassage.com.
We very much look forward to hearing from you soon. Keep writing!
