Disclosing AI use

Each book states how it was written: written by the author; written with AI assistance; or generated with AI and edited by the author. The label appears in the book's details. Choosing a label that is not true is a breach of this policy.

Age and sensitive topics

Books with mature themes must say so in their description. Sexually explicit content is not allowed in any book.

Minimum quality

• At least 5,000 words of original text, a cover, and a description of at least 300 characters.
• The title, description and categories match what the book is actually about.
