Il progetto Books4You nasce dalla passione per la lettura e per la
letteratura in genere dei suoi fondatori. E' il primo Social Talent
Letterario abbinato ad un Social Network tematico e diretto a tutti
coloro che amano scrivere, raccontare e che non hanno mai avuto la
possibilità di veder pubblicare una loro opera. Books4You è uno
strumento web con l'intento di permettere a scrittori non
professionisti di pubblicare le proprie opere, partecipare ad eventuali
concorsi e mettersi in gioco sondando l'indice di gradimento che il
pubblico esprime nei loro confronti. Nel portale Books4You sarà
disponibile una biblioteca virtuale e del tutto gratuita che conterrà
tutte le opere di questi autori. L'intento è di dare visibilità alle
opere e promuoverne la lettura augurandoci che tale fucina possa essere
un trampolino di lancio verso il successo. Vai su
