“Lovewriting – bringing new authors and readers together”

Beta site - please let us have your feedback

Lovereading and Lovereading4kids have become established as THE source of guidance to help readers choose their next book. Over 150,000 avid readers have signed up to these sites to receive regular email news and book recommendations – and benefit from bespoke online guidance tools such as Opening Extracts of every Featured Book and a unique Author Like-for-Like service.

So powerful a force has Lovereading become that many authors have approached us to ask us if we can help them promote their books online.

Lovewriting offers authors guidance on how to get their book published – and showcases new and independent authors’ books to our online customer base. Are you ...


Whereas publishing your own book is now easier than ever before, there remains the tricky business of letting the world know about it, and persuading people to buy it. Lovewriting has been developed to offer independent authors ways of promoting your book to our own subscribers, to subscribers to our sister sites, Lovereading and Lovereading4kids, and beyond.

Lovewriting allows:

  • you to create your own Book Page
  • with all the details a reader needs such as synopsis, front cover, author photo and author biography
  • readers to download an Opening Extract of your book
  • details of your book to be emailed to our subscribers
  • and readers to buy your book*

In all, Lovewriting makes it easy for customers to view, sample and purchase your book.

* Provided the book fulfils certain requirements i.e. it has an ISBN, is available to order via Gardners our distribution agent.
