Perhaps you have read ‘Coiling Dragon’, ‘Battle Through the Heavens’, or ‘Bringing the Nation's Husband Home’ but do you know that the authors of such novels have become multi-millionaires just from writing web novels? You might think that these people that changed their lives writing web novels are exceptional cases, but in fact, they are not in the minority! Making a living from writing web novels has become a common phenomenon most recently. Many authors fulfill their dreams of writing while earning royalties that are higher than the average job. In 2017, Webnovel’s parent company, Yuewen Group paid out nearly 200,000,000 DOLLARS. The average contracted Yuewen’s author earns an annum of 23,560 DOLLARS!
Nearly 90% of web novelists work with Yuewen. Nearly 7 MILLION authors have published online literary works under Yuewen’s platforms. They range from students to white-collar workers to teachers… Many of them are ordinary people fulfilling their dreams of writing. Their success proves one thing—anyone can write!
As a pioneer of online literature and the world’s only listed company that focuses on online literature, Yuewen has successfully proven the immense potential of the online literature market! Now, we are bringing this successful model internationally with Webnovel. We wish to create an illustrious future together with you for English web novels!

We will invite famous editors and excellent authors in the industry to share their experience in writing web novels. A Book of Authors will be shared with all authors!
Authors sign a royalty contract with Webnovel. Authors will share the revenue earned from subscriptions on the website, direct sales from other platforms, and other monetization of the copyright. With the advantage of a continual stream of revenue, the standard royalty sharing is also the best choice to ensure an author’s long-term earnings.
If you have an excellent novel draft and seek a stable environment for content creation, you can consider negotiating a fixed-rate contract. You will transfer the copyright and its provisions to us at an agreed-upon price and terms. Successful and experienced authors are given priority!
We understand that an excellent author isn’t created in a day. Before many of our top authors created their popular works, they were once in an exploratory phase. Webnovel deeply understands the predicament that new authors face. In 2015, We established a Contracted Works Guarantee System that saved the dreams of many aspiring authors. If a contracted author meets the stipulated conditions below, they will be given a cash reward directly! It will ensure a financial guarantee for your dream as a writer. Regardless of your results, you will obtain a basic income. Paying for your development is the underlying core of guaranteeing your continual creation of content.
Here comes the new Contracted Works Minimum Guarantee System!
We will ensure that every royalty-contracted work that goes Premium in the first four months will receive at least US$200/month if the revenue you earn is less than US$200/month. But in this case, the author needs to release at least 40,000 words (premium chapters) every month. So in the first four months, your contracted works can earn US$800 to US$1600.
Note:
40,000 – 59,999 premium words: US$200/month
60,000 – 79,999 premium words: US$300/month
Over 80,000 premium words: US$400/month
Requirements:
Contracted works; Going premium; The first four months.
Apart from creating new works on Webnovel, we also welcome authors to post their past works on the Webnovel platform! More people will notice and enjoy your works here!
Authors with excellent completed works will be given priority for contracts.
