Membership Fee Monthly Payment Arrangements

Authors can pay their Membership Fees by Bank Transfer, Standing Order, PAYPAL or Request a monthly payment link to be emailed allowing them to pay by Debit or Credit Card. Authors paying by PAYPAL please ensure that this is recorded as a Family & Friends payment to reduce the impact of fees being deducted and also check any exchange rate conversions to ensure the correct payment is received in GBP.

Authors may in their first year of membership pay their Membership Fee in advance as a one off payment. A 2.5% advanced payment discount will be given should the Author choose this option. Please use the Membership Registration Form to advise whether this option is preferred.

Please note that this advanced payment discount is not available once an Author moves into Year 2 of the Loyalty & Length of Service Scheme. However Authors may still make an advanced payment rather than regular monthly payments if this is their preferred option.

With all Advanced Payment Discounts there is a 100% cancellation fee charged should the AUTHOR cancel midterm and therefore NO REFUND will be given of the membership fee paid.

When considering our Membership Packages please be aware that the fees are for the benefits and service outlined to you. Please remember that the memberships are not a measure of how much in Royalties you will receive and we cannot make any guarantees as to the level of Royalties you will receive during your time with us. The fees pay for a service provided and the support of a creative and passionate team who work in partnership with the Author to enhance your earning opportunity and enable you to reach a wider reading audience. You will always have a supportive, nurturing, passionate and creative team by your side with the Book Dragon and the non-financial benefits we offer are invaluable.

The Role of our Author Business Partner

Our Business Partner works closely, and regularly communicates with the author during the course of the membership to ensure that all of our authors are receiving their exclusive membership benefits. The Business Partner builds a positive working relationship with the author getting to know them well, and their work. They provide guidance and advice on the marketability of the authors books, and ideas for self promotion, offer a sounding board, facilitate contact between the different departments that the author is interested in working with, and keep up to date with the authors news & updates sharing this on our social media pages.  Where an author is unable to attend their arranged book signings our Business Partner fully represents the author at the signing.
Together the author and their Business Partner collaborate on ideas, ensuring the author is marketed and promoted in the way the author envisages.
 
Our Business Partner Michelle Marshall had this to say “The role of a Book Dragon Business Partner is to encourage our authors to flourish as much as they deserve to. We assist them in getting themselves and their work to the best standard it can possibly be, not only by nurturing their creativity, but by helping them to communicate to as wide an audience as possible. In order to do this,  business partners seek to increase engagement with books. They aim to promote the message that reading is not only a fun free time activity, but something that ignites the imagination and helps to improve empathy and positive mental health.  We work to support our authors at every step of their literary journey, no matter how far along the path they are. From someone taking their first tentative steps into the world of writing to those who already have numerous novels penned, we have something to offer everyone. The Business Partner serves as a contact point between all the different branches of The Book Dragon business. They provide guidance as to which services may be of interest to the author and help facilitate their use. Their support helps authors to make the most of the many benefits of their membership.”
