Once Upon an Author is a FREE website where teens ages 13–19 authors, book lovers, and artists can share their work. All comments (with some exceptions made by the founder) are approved before being shown to the public to protect against trolls. If you write books of any kind, you can post your work to see how real readers react and get approved feedback. If you like to read, you can find new hit books before they are ever published and tell the authors what you think. If you are into art, you can post pictures of your work, receive approved feedback. Unlike larger websites where new authors never get a single read or review, on Once Upon an Author everyone is highly likely to get viewers because to help every creator receive attention, members are strongly encouraged to read and leave constructive feedback on another member's work before posting new content. Once Upon an Author was built specifically for creative teens ages 13–19 creators. By joining Once Upon an Author, you agree to our Terms of Use and Privacy Policy.
