NotaeBooks is a platform for publishing and reading books and serialized fiction. Authors can publish complete books or ongoing serials, while readers can discover new content, track their reading progress, and subscribe to their favorite works.
Yes! Reading content on NotaeBooks is completely free. Authors can also publish their works for free, though they have the option to set pricing for premium content.
You can browse publicly available books and serials without an account. However, creating a free account unlocks features like bookmarking, reading progress tracking, subscriptions to authors, and access to your personal library.
Books are complete, published works with all chapters available.Serials are ongoing stories that are updated regularly, similar to web novels or episodic content. Serials can be marked as ongoing, on hiatus, or completed.
Subscribing to a book or serial allows you to receive notifications when new chapters are published. You can manage your subscriptions from your dashboard and unsubscribe at any time.
Yes! Authors can enable EPUB downloads for their works. Look for the download button on the book or serial page. You can customize your EPUB preferences (font, size, theme) in your dashboard settings.
When you're logged in, NotaeBooks automatically tracks your reading progress as you read chapters. You can see your progress on your dashboard and pick up right where you left off when you return.
Bookmarks let you save books and serials you want to read later or keep track of. Access your bookmarks from your dashboard to quickly return to your saved content.

Yes! Once you have author access, you can publish as many books and serials as you like. Each has its own management dashboard where you can add chapters, set metadata, and control visibility.
You control when your work is visible to readers. Unpublished works (isPublic: false) are only visible to you in your author dashboard. When you're ready, you can make them public for readers to discover.
Yes! NotaeBooks offers chapter style templates that you can apply to individual chapters or entire works. You can also create custom CSS styles for advanced formatting.
Your author dashboard includes analytics showing view counts, reading progress, and subscriber statistics for your works. This helps you understand your audience and track your growth.
Your email is always private. You control your author profile visibility with the "Public Profile" setting. When public, readers can see your bio, profile picture, and published works, but never your email or personal account details.
We believe in transparency. When applying for author access or publishing content, you can indicate whether you use AI tools in your writing process. This helps readers make informed decisions about the content they consume.
