Why I built Book Factory Cafe

July 18, 2026

I got tired of watching authors pay a platform before they ever made a sale, and never learn who their readers were.

So I built the bookshop I wanted to sell from. You keep 80% of every sale, paid the next day. Ninety-nine dollars once per book gets you a finished ebook and a fully narrated audiobook. There is no annual fee and nothing to cancel.

Your rate is locked to the day you join. If you ever want to leave, you take your books and your reader list with you and owe us nothing. That last part is the whole point.
