The social platform built from scratch for independent and marginalized authors. Not a hashtag on someone else's app. A home.
Indie authors write the most daring, diverse, boundary-pushing fiction being published today. But the platforms they depend on were never built for them.
Instagram and TikTok reward video trends and engagement bait. Text-based creators, the people who write actual books, get pushed to the bottom of the feed.
Goodreads is for readers. Wattpad is for fanfiction. BookBub is for deals. None of them are social networks built around the working indie author.
BIPOC, LGBTQ+, disabled, and neurodivergent authors are producing extraordinary work. But mainstream platforms and publishers still call them too niche to promote.
Showcase your books, genres, upcoming releases, and writing voice. Not your lunch photos.
Readers find you through what you write and who you are, not how many followers you have.
Genre-specific and identity-specific groups. Black romance writers. Queer sci-fi authors. Disabled poets. Your people, in one place.
Recommend fellow authors, share audiences, and lift each other up. The way indie authors already do, but built into the platform.
"The world is bigger than your block."
