What the Book Description Writer does

A great description sells the book. This free description writer reads your EPUB or PDF and writes descriptions in three ready-to-use styles: back cover, catalogue and bookseller’s pick. Each comes in a short and a long version, written in the language of the book and matched to its genre.

Add an editor’s note, such as a selling point, an award or a comparison title, and it is worked into all three styles as fact. The short and long versions follow the ONIX text-type conventions retailers expect, so the copy is ready to paste straight into your shop or feed.

It is free and private, one book at a time, with a copy sent to your inbox.

When to use it

  • Drafting back-cover and online-shop copy for a new release.
  • Refreshing tired descriptions on a backlist title.
  • Getting three distinct tones to choose from in seconds.
  • Keeping copy consistent across a series or imprint.

Do this for your whole catalogue in Origami

Metadata, EPUB and accessibility checks, descriptions and more, all in one place and not just once. Origami is where these tools live for your entire list.
