Optional shop. Never required to finish.

Typewriter makes publish-ready files. BookStand sells direct when you want a storefront.

What is BookStand?

BookStand is the author shop in the Typewriter publish suite. It is a separate product: catalog, pricing, and storefront — not the writing desk.

Press can hand off metadata and cover so you are not retyping the book into a shop form.

Download still comes first

You can always download EPUB/print packages for KDP, Ingram, and other stores without opening BookStand.

Sell direct is opt-in at the end of the path.

FAQ

Do I need BookStand to use Typewriter?

No. Writing is free forever. Press downloads work without a shop.

Where is the BookStand product page?

See /bookstand on Typewriter marketing, and bookstand.app for the shop product.
