Dear iAuthor Community,

From our beta launch in December 2012, through 5 iterations, to the interactive platform you see today, we've never wavered in our mission: to give the publishing world a hub for serendipitous discovery.

Your daily engagement has made this possible, for what would iAuthor be without our loyal users? You have been the platform's lifeblood, at the heart of everything we do. You've been catalysts for innovation, and your well-considered feedback has been key in ensuring an industry-leading user-experience across all devices.

Regrettably, the Covid-19 pandemic means that we're unable to maintain iAuthor in its current form. Nothing but the best will do; and against this singularly challenging backdrop, we feel that "the best" is no longer achievable.

iAuthor is therefore shutting its operations on Thursday 27th August. In accordance with GDPR law, your data and all associated content will be permanently deleted on that date. Unavoidably, this includes your book profiles, themes and samples. You needn't do a thing, but might consider taking a commemorative screenshot of your iAuthor profile for reference purposes. All existing adverts will be wound down on Wednesday 26th August. Any adverts created after 12th August will be reimbursed in full.

It's been a uniquely enriching 8-year journey. We're privileged to have shared it with you.

With warmest wishes,

The iAuthor Team
