Short version: your book stays yours.
Your book belongs to you
You keep the copyright to your text and your cover.
If you leave, you take your book with you.
What you upload has to be yours
When you upload a book, you are telling us that you wrote it.
If someone claims that a book infringes their rights, we take it off sale.
Our design library (in the works)
To make covers easier, we are working on a free-to-use cover editor.
- Art we made ourselves. Drawn by hand for Snailock.
- Public domain work. Paintings, prints and engravings so old that nobody owns them any more.
You will notice what is missing: free stock photos.
What you can do with the library art
Use it on the cover or inside any book you publish through Snailock.
The one thing you cannot do is take the pieces out and sell them as pieces.
A public domain painting is a special case worth understanding.
Art made with AI
You may use it, but you should know the catch.
Our own art
Every illustration on this site was drawn by hand in code.
If something is wrong
