New Content Rules
Dear Authors,
You may not have noticed but Booknet has recently updated their rules. These are the rules for publishing on Booknet and do apply to previously published stories. The rules apply to your books Cover, Annotation (Book Description) and of course the book's content.
It is VERY important to make sure your book is compliant with the new rule changes as if it isn't, it could subject your book to be reported and removed from Booknet. A copy of the rules can be found under INFORMATION - Content Rules at the bottom of the page on PC or Mobile.
So... Know the Rules.
