Indie authors: fall roll call. 🍂📚 New release? Cover reveal? Signing? Convention? Finishing the damn manuscript? What are you working on. I’d love to see what everyone has coming. And yes, still looking for more authors to kick the tires on @byline.pub. #books #IndieAuthors

Got a backlist? Don't type it in one book at a time. Byline imports a CSV (ISBN optional, because half of indie publishing is ASIN-only) or a markdown file per book. Drop the cover images in alongside and they come in too. Easy-peasy byline.pub/help/import #IndieAuthors #SelfPublishing

Screen shot with the text - You can add a whole backlist in one go. Upload markdown files, one per book, upload a CSV describing all of them, or paste a list of ISBNs and let byline look them up. Whichever you choose, you review and edit every title before anything is published. This page walks through it.

Use markdown if your books have real blurbs, because the blurb goes in the body of the file where it keeps its paragraphs. Use a CSV if you have a lot of titles and short descriptions, since one file covers all of them.

Screen shot with From your account, go to Your books and choose Import from a list, beside Add a book. The importer is for adding several titles at once; a single book is quicker through Add a book.

Showing two book layouts with a cover, Title and description. Buttons under with Edit, preview, duplicate, hide and delete.

Screen shot of an input dialog. With text - Three ways in, and they all end at the same review. Markdown files: choose as many as you like, one per book. A CSV with a header row: read column by column, so a book no catalogue has ever indexed still imports from what you typed. A plain list of ISBNs: one per line, and byline looks those up, with ISBN-10 and ISBN-13 both fine and hyphens or spaces ignored. Then choose Review these books.

30 seconds on what a byline hub looks like. Books, buy links, events, your writing, one page, all of it sitting in your own account. Start yours: byline.pub/for-authors

Most book platforms rent you a page. Leave, and your page stays behind. On byline, every book you add is a signed record in your own AT account. Move providers, and it moves with you. If byline vanished tomorrow, your catalogue would still be yours. #IndieAuthors #ATProto #SelfPublishing

Huge credit to @omg.jacky.wtf for getting the book lexicon conversation moving. A bunch of us have been building around books on ATProto, @bylinepub.bsky.social, @bookhive.buzz, @chris.pardy.family (cavu) and others, but mostly with our heads down in our own projects.

Adding your books to byline.pub is getting easier. We’ve built book import for authors: start with your ISBNs, review the prefilled details, edit what needs fixing, and publish the records from your own AT account. Your books. Your links. Less typing.

Did you know? Self-published authors often keep much higher royalties per sale than traditionally published authors. But higher upside only matters if readers can actually find the work. That’s part of why we’re building Byline.pub. #indieauthors #authors #books

Did you know? The hard part of indie publishing often starts after the book is finished. Publishing is easier than it used to be. Being found is still hard. Byline.pub is in beta to work on that problem. #author #indieauthor
