WEB BASED AUTHOR PROJECT SYSTEM

Dog Ear Publishing is very pleased to release our new web based Author Project System! This system allows authors to review the production and sales data on their projects, and is accessed via the web at the following address:

To access this system you will need two things:

1) Username - which is usually your email address with the "@" replaced by "_" (an underscore)

2) Password - this is a uniquely generated password here at Dog Ear

If you are an active Dog Ear Publishing author, you should have received an email with both of these items included. If you did not - or if you have lost the email - please contact us and we'll send you your login and password.

Here is an overview of the system - each section is outlined below, with links to the appropriate explanation page.
