Since Amazon opened Vella to authors three months ago, “thousands of authors” have published “tens of thousands of Kindle Vella episodes across dozens of genres and microgenre,” Amazon said. To boost engagement, authors can speak directly to readers at the end of episodes to “share story insights and behind-the-scenes content,” Amazon wrote. To that end, readers can follow stories to be notified of new episodes, leave a thumbs up for episodes they like, apply a “Fave” for their favorite story of the week (provided they purchase tokens), and share on Twitter, Facebook and other social media. The latter will give you about 34 episodes, though prices per episode depend on the word count - the more words, the more you’ll have to spend.Īuthors, meanwhile, will receive 50 percent of the revenue along with bonuses based on engagement with the app’s social media-style features.
To see subsequent episodes, you’ll need to pay for “tokens,” with prices ranging from $2 for 200 tokens up to $15 for 1,700 tokens. The serialized stories will run from 600 to 5,000 words per episode, with the first three offered for free. To start with, the service will be limited to US-based authors who publish stories in English.
