The Author's Ledger
Your author business,
in one clear view.
Bring your books, royalties, sales, purchases, and promotions together. Understand what you're earning, where your money goes, and what to do next.
Built for authors,
not accountants.
Start with your books, series, and pen names. Record royalties, production costs, and promotion spending with guided steps that keep the focus on your author business. Keep receipts and reports with your transactions, and track the print books and merchandise you have ready to sell.
Bring your royalties together.
Import supported distributor reports, match titles to your catalog, and keep the original files with the resulting transactions. You can also add manual transactions to supplement your imports.
