shareWORDproject.net   takes the shareware (software distribution) strategy and applies it to creative writing. We replace shareware's "try before you buy" concept with "read and then reward."

Donation-based publishing doesn't mean low quality. The quality here depends on our authors and on readers who are willing to encourage and reward them. When you click a donate button on the authors page you're not paying for printing or promotional costs or a publishing house's overhead. You are directly rewarding that specific author's time, effort, craft and creativity.

READERS WANTED: Download publications from the library and, depending on the format(s) provided by the individual author, read them on your PC, handheld device or compatible eReader or even print them off for a more traditional, tactile reading experience. Provide feedback directly to the author and reward quality and entertainment value by donating to the author. After all, that author you like can't live and write on feedback alone.

AUTHORS WANTED: Try our approach to open publishing. check out our contribute page to find out how you can create your account and begin ePublishing with us.

Authors and readers should check out our links page, which includes links for eBook reading and creation tools.

While shareWORDproject.net is a labour of love, we'd like to keep this an ad-free site, so we also hope that readers and authors will voluntarily contribute to help offset the cost of mounting and maintaining this site.
