Questions authors ask

Can I cancel anytime?

Yes. Cancel anytime via the Customer Portal and you'll keep access until the end of your current billing period, then return to the Book Worm trial stage.

Do I need to upgrade to start writing?

No. Book Worm gives you a free 14-day trial — outline and draft your first book with the Writing Studio. When the trial ends, upgrade to Storyteller to keep writing and unlock AI help.

When should I move up a stage?

Storyteller when you want AI to help shape and edit your manuscript. Author when you need advanced editing and continuity tools to prepare a finished book. Published when you're ready to sell, build your author presence and reach readers.

The Published stage (£49.99/mo) includes everything you need to publish and sell, with a 60/40 platform/author revenue split on each sale (full model being finalised).

Prices and features are managed centrally and may change as the platform grows.
