QUARTO

QUARTO — the author template where visitors can actually read the book.

Most author and novelist sites show a cover and a buy button. QUARTO takes readers inside the book.

📖 THE GALLEY — A REAL READER

A live typesetting engine flows your chapter into paginated book pages — drop-caps, proper measure, a 3D page-turn you can drag, night mode. No other author template on the marketplace does this. Paste your chapter into the CMS and it re-typesets itself.

📚 SINGLE BOOK OR A WHOLE SHELF

Add one novel and the site reads as a single-book launch; add several and it becomes an author shelf — each with its own detail page, all from the CMS. Fully flexible.

✒ THE PRESSED PAGE REGISTER

Designed like a printed book, not a landing page — warm uncoated paper, real book typography (Fraunces, Literata, Courier Prime), folios, running heads, a colophon. A literary register nobody else in the lane owns.

✨ FOUR SIGNATURE MOMENTS

THE IMPRESS — a lens reveals the typescript living under the printed cover. THE STACK — your books ride over each other as full-bleed panels. THE SURVEY — the novel's map draws itself as you scroll.

🗂 THREE CMS COLLECTIONS

Books, Praise and Events — single-source, edit once, updates everywhere. Book detail pages generate automatically.

🎛 FULLY BUYER-EDITABLE — NO CODE

Colours, copy, fonts, covers and photos all change from the Styles panel and CMS.

👉 START HERE FIRST

A built-in /start-here owner's manual with live swatches walks you through everything, no code.

📱 Clean on desktop, tablet and mobile — the reader is readable on a phone. 60fps motion.
