BookHabit
Posted by Rod in TechBiz, Wellington at 4:19 pm on Monday, 25 February 2008

Here’s another great little company coming out of the Wellington tech scene.

BookHabit is an online publishing site that enables authors to self-publish works online for free, contributing to an online library of ebooks accessible by readers all over the world.  Readers can sample a book with a free first chapter before they buy. Full books start from US$2.50 (approx NZ$3.30) to download.

“Authors take a 40% slice of each sale, and can earn more than the typical 5 - 12% traditional publishers might pay,” said Bookhabit.com co-founder Clare Tanner.

Should be an interesting one to watch.
