How is eBook pricing decided?
Fictionwise is both a publisher (i.e., we own the electronic rights to certain eBooks) and a distributor (we sell eBooks from other ePublishers). EBooks published by Fictionwise can cost as little as 49 cents for short stories, while novels (40,000 words and higher) usually cost $4.99 and up. In general, Fictionwise tries to keep its novel length works at or below new paperback prices. When Fictionwise sells works from other ePublishers, we do not control the price–the ePublisher does. Fictionwise gives its members many ways to save. Our “power users” take advantage of all of these to get very high discounts on their purchases. How do I order an eBook? We suggest you take a moment to learn how the Fictionwise system works. It’s very easy. Can I order multiple copies of an eBook? Since you can download your eBooks as needed, there is no reason to buy multiple copies. If you wish to buy an eBook for a friend, check out our Gift Certificate and Gift Pack page.
