About Book
He was not Harry! He was not a rabbit of Beatrix! This magic and romantic POTTER of my family is an ancestor of Tintin, the Brussels reporter. He was a rebellious journalist who triggered a small revolution in the park of Brussels with a group of young colleagues who wanted rapid political changes... With an army of brave artists in Florence, Rome, Paris and Brussels... With several mysterious publishers, in Paris, Rome, Geneva, Bonn, Brussels and Bruges, he succeeded to move the whole population! He wrote adventures with a bird's feather as a pen, on a shaky piece of paper, travelling across Europe on horseback, like lonely Lucky Luke, but saving poor families like Robin Hood against the Kings. With editors and copywriters as kind of soldiers, he obtained "freedom of the press", and then "universal voting right", and also "better genders equality", plus food and school for kids eventually, a whole new country called "Belgium". Orchestrated by the greatest history actors in 1830 (his friends Lafayette, Stendhal, Balzac, Sand, David, Rousseau, Hugo...), here is the true story of the "tough beer pots" vs. "fragile champaign glasses"... Cocktails offered for a beautiful dumb lady, singing a forbidden opera in Brussels about a "European Renaissance", launching an invented country: "Belgium" (in Brussels where it's full of waffles & mossels)!
What is a Book ICO?
Book ICO is the next generation way to kick-start books — authors publish their way.
ICO’s took 2017 by storm. Publica Book ICO’s are the next generation crowdfunder-plus-presale for ebooks where authors are free to publish their way.
Authors — You set your own prices for during and after your Book ICO. When your book is a recognized token on a blockchain you’re selling book tokens directly to your followers who support you and look forward to the promised release.
Presale funds can improve the quality of independently published books. Or publicize great books that might never find their true audience without it.Your book tokens work anywhere in the world on any iOS or Android device.
Readers — When you buy a book token, that’s your private access key to read the book in your Publica reader app available now for iOS and Android phones and tablets. Many Chromebooks too.
You can also send book tokens to other people, unlike any conventional ebook. So buy as many book tokens as you want!
You can also sell recognized book tokens on a secondary token exchange so depending on the total circulation of a book’s tokens, tokens in your wallet may grow in value if the book becomes collectable.
What are you waiting for? Oh, the countdown clock...
