Curated Word
A new way of publishing.
Curated Word is changing the world of self-publishing. Authors can still publish in their own name and retain full control over their work, but with professional editorial & production support in all aspects of the process.
Creative Specialists can find clients and paid work. Readers can follow their favourite authors and get early access to new chapters. Booksellers can stock titles on consignment, paying only for the books they sell.
Authors
Write and publish your novel
Bring your manuscript into a professional workshop. Publish it yourself — free, in your own name, keeping every right — or submit it and let us publish it under our imprint. You choose which, book by book.
Industry professionals
Edit, design, narrate, promote
Find clients through our marketplace for editors, cover designers, illustrators, layout designers, narrators, proofreaders, and publicists. Membership is free and can lead to paid work.
Readers
Be the first to read what we publish
Get notified when something new lands, follow your favourite authors, build a library across formats. Free; no marketing emails unless you ask.
Publishers
Run your publishing house here
Host your press on the platform: your imprints, your ISBN pool, submissions and signing, production, a branded storefront on your own domain, and earnings accounted to the cent.
Booksellers
Stock Curated Word titles on consignment
Independent bookstores get wholesale terms and a self-service consignment dashboard. Reorders, sales reports, and settlement, all in one place.
Two ways to publish
Self-publish free in your own name, or be published outright by Wordwrights, our house imprint — you choose which, book by book. See the two ways to publish for how each path works, or the self-publishing FAQ for the details.
