Host paid author events and book clubs
Sell tickets to live readings, author Q&As, and book-club discussions, and connect with readers anywhere in the world.
Readers love access to the writers and communities behind the books they love. Ticketed author events and paid book clubs turn that affection into a sustainable income stream, a live reading, a launch Q&A, or a recurring discussion circle.
motion gives authors and organizers a paywalled room with live chat and on-stage guests, so you can read, take questions, and bring in fellow authors or members for richer conversation.
