Selling Your Books On Cornwall Writers

Sell Your Books in our online shop

If you are a Cornish author or have books set in or referring to Cornwall, we can stock and sell your books in our online shop and at any book festivals we attend or Pop Up Bookshops we do. You will be responsible for delivering the books to us when stocks run low. We take a 20% commission to cover our time plus any payment fees we have to pay (usually about 1.75%). If the Festival or venue charges for the stall, we will let you know how much we need to charge authors for that event before we stock your books there.

Author Book Shops

Alternatively, you can set up your own Author Book Shop on our website. You will be in control of your author shop: setting it up, editing it and posting out your orders. Cornwall Writers takes 15% plus the cost of transaction fees (usually 20p per transaction plus about 2% of the total amount, depending on the cards used to pay). We will pay you by bank transfer once a month for any sales you make in the previous month and send you a monthly statement.

You need to have an authorised Author account to set up your Author Book Shop. You can register at https://cornwallwriters.co.uk/registration-for-cornish-writers/

Once authorised, either email admin@cornwallwriters.co.uk to be allocated a shop account or fill out the shop registration form.

Publishers and Bookshops

If you are a Publisher or Bookshop, you can set up a bookshop selling books by Cornish authors or with a Cornish theme on our website. Either fill out our bookshop registration form or contact admin@cornwallwriters.co.uk so we can set up an account for you. You will be in control of your bookshop on the Cornwall Writers website: setting it up, editing it and posting out your orders.
