A community of student writers and readers
College Authors was founded in 2025 with a simple idea: every student writer deserves to be read. We believe that the best stories often come from unexpected places—dorm rooms, libraries, coffee shops, and late-night study breaks.
What started as a small collection of stories shared among friends has grown into a community of hundreds of writers and thousands of readers. Our platform is built by students, for everyone, with the goal of making creative writing accessible to everyone.
We exist to give student writers a spotlight away from the professional crowd. Whether you're writing your first short story or your tenth novel, College Authors gives you a place to share your work, get feedback, and even earn a little money doing what you love.
For readers, we offer a constantly growing library of fresh, original stories across every genre. Read free previews, discover new voices, and support the writers you love for just $1 per book.
We believe that creative work has value, but we also know that students are on a budget. That's why every ebook on College Authors costs just $1. It's enough to say "I support you" without breaking the bank.
Writers keep 100% of their earnings from book sales. Tips and community support go directly to the authors who make this platform special.
Whether you're here to read or to write, you're welcome at College Authors. Explore our genres, discover new stories, and become part of a community that believes in the power of student voices.
