Our Roots

The Quivering Quill was founded due to an ever increasing issue within the ebook and audiobook environment for authors that write things that some would consider ‘inappropriate’ or ‘taboo’, and that issue is acceptance. More and more sites and distributors are refusing to allow content they have deemed ‘unsuitable’ on their sites and that doesn’t sit right with us. Rather than put up with that issue it was decided that we should do something about it, thus The Quivering Quill was born. In addition to the censorship issue we also recognize that the authors are the ones doing the work and deserve a greater share of the profit for their hard work, to this effect our profit sharing agreement with authors is far better than any other distributor that we have found. This allows our authors to live easier and not stress (as much) about needing to pump out another book as quickly which also leads to better books. To that end, authors of ‘spicy’ stories are not the only ones welcome here, all authors or creators of digital story telling are welcome here. In time we hope to be able to deliver books, audiobooks, comics, and even games.
