Experience

We have 10 years of experience in publishing. You are in good hands. ShortStoryLovers is like Netflix for Short Stories. We started in 2012 as an open source platform for sharing short stories by authors from around the globe.

Transparent

Our unique and transparent PCA tool will not miss even a single page click on your story. This tool helps us calculate the royalty awarded to our authors.

PAGE COUNT ALGORITHM - TOOL

We have developed a unique and transparent mechanism to calculate royalty shared with our authors. Simply put, we divide your story in pages, just like a book. Through PCA we record the number of unique views your story has received.

For example: If one of your stories is divided into 4 pages and the other into 10 and a reader reads both the stories completely, royalty earned on the 10-page story will be higher than the 4-page story. But if reader reads just 2 pages of the 10-page story and leave the story then royalty earned will be less than for the fully read 4-page story.
