Intro

Have you ever wanted to publish your books written in minecraft? Why not submit them to AuthorCraft! AuthorCraft is a frequently updated minecraft map where you can submit your work to and it will be sorted into a bin based off of its genre. On AuthorCraft, you can either read works written by other players, or write your own and submit them!

If you know how to write, PLEASE contribute to the library! Since nobody has really added to it yet, the library's kind of empty so far. :( But you can always be the first!

Someday, I'm hoping to make AuthorCraft a server, so people can submit a lot easier, but so far, if you want your book published, you'll have to send it in to me. Sorry!

Spawn

In the AuthorCraft map, you will spawn in a library-like room full of books,genre bins, and a bunch of random cats and dogs. (idk, I was bored xD)

You will spawn in creative mode, and have one item in your inventory. That item is theinstructions guide.This is a written book that contains the basic instructions for using AuthorCraft, just in case you didn't read the ones on this page.

AuthorCraft Terms



  • Bins-Bins are justwooden chests.(idk why I'm calling them bins xD) If they are labeled, that just means they have little wooden signs with titles on them sitting above them.



  • Genre Bins-Bins labeled with the names of bookgenres. They each contain books of their own genres. (ex: you would find a horror story in thehorror genre bin.)



  • o Submit for Publishingo bin-Anender-chestwhere you should place any books that you've written on the level that you want to publish. (I'll fully explain the publishing process later)



  • Genre-Just in case you didn't know, agenreis a type of book or story. (ex: comedy, adventure, non-fiction, fantasy, poetry, etc.) Books are often sorted by genre.



  • Instructions Guide-This is just a book you'll spawn with that lists the instructions on using AuthorCraft. Those instructions are also listed on this page.



  • The End Wars Series-Just a book series I started to fill up the library a little, hope you like! :)



  • AuthorCraft Library-The place you'll spawn in. This room contains all of thegenre binsand theSubmit for Publishing bin.



  • Saturday Update-AuthorCraft is updated every Saturday with new books, map changes, and improvements in general.



Contributing to the Library

If you plan on contributing to the library, THANK YOU SO MUCH!!! It's kind of empty right now and if it doesn't have many books, that kinda ruins the point of it being a library. Right now, AuthorCraft really NEEDS contributers and authors for the map, so if you want to share your story, follow the instructions in this quick tutorial:


  1. Write a book on the AuthorCraft level. (Don't forget to sign it!)



  2. Place your book in theSubmit for Publishing bin.



  3. Exit minecraft.



  4. Copy the AuthorCraft level with your book on it from the saves folder in .minecraft.



  5. Attach the level's folder to an email and send it to me atkandykaneluvvv@gmail.com.



  6. Your book should be in the library by the nextSaturday Update!



Rules:


  • DON'T STEAL MY MAP!!!!!! --seriously people, that isn't cool.



  • Don't harass or intimidate other players. (even if it's really creative, AuthorCraft won't accept books that involve dissing actual players.)



  • Don't steal or copy other people's work; be original.



  • Only submit books in English.



  • Don't give away your personal information in your books.

    Well, that's about it for the rules, since there's nothing you can really do to screw up this map. (no offense xD)
