Amazon launched its Kindle
Worlds fan fiction platform just over a year ago, and the concept has been a great success for both the rights holders who license content to the
site and the
fans who adore the concepts and story lines of their favorite authors.
When Amazon Publishing announced the creation of its
fan fiction publishing
site Kindle
Worlds, one of its first and most vocal supporters was bestselling author Hugh Howey.
In a manner similar to the
site's pre-existing self - publishing e-book platform, Kindle
Worlds will allow writers of
fan fiction the chance to profit from something they'd probably be doing for free anyway, with or without an audience, albeit at a much lower rate than if they, say, changed the characters and settings from Twilight just enough to be legally discernible and then maybe added anal beads or something.
One example is Kindle
Worlds, which is a paid
fan -
fiction site that Amazon set up a while back.
