Publier son roman

From finished manuscript to book on sale: traditional publishing, self-publishing, digital formats and author rights — with an edition template to fill in with YOUR manuscript.

An e-book for fiction authors with a finished or nearly finished manuscript who want to understand the publishing routes and the French formalities. It covers traditional publishing, self-publishing, digital formats and author rights, from finished manuscript to book on sale. The folder contains six files: the paginated PDF for reading and printing, the resizable EPUB for e-reader, tablet or phone, the complete Markdown source, a browser-readable index.html requiring no installation, a README, and above all GABARIT-ROMAN.md — an edition template to fill in with your own manuscript: empty structure, front matter, legal notices, typographic conventions and a pre-export checklist, tied to chapter 10 of the book. The Markdown source can be handed to your AI assistant together with the prompt from the PERSONALIZATION chapter to adapt the templates and checklists to your project. Updated as of 31/07/2026. The e-book is written in French (it covers French formalities).

Frequently asked questions

Do I need to have finished my novel for this guide to be useful?
It is aimed at fiction authors with a finished or nearly finished manuscript. If you are still early in the writing, the book will mainly help you prepare what comes next: publishing routes, formats and formalities.
What is the GABARIT-ROMAN.md file?
It is an edition template to fill in with your own manuscript: empty structure, front matter, legal notices, typographic conventions and a pre-export checklist. You work through it alongside chapter 10 of the book.
Does the guide give legal advice on publishing contracts?
No. It presents the publishing routes, formats and author rights for information only, updated as of 31/07/2026. Before signing a publishing contract, have it reviewed by a legal professional or an authors' organisation.
Does the guide promise publication or sales?
No. No guide can guarantee publication, a deal or a level of sales. What the book provides is the existing routes, the formalities and a ready-to-fill edition template.
Can I withdraw after purchase?
No: digital content delivered immediately after payment. By ticking the consent box before buying, you request immediate performance and expressly waive your right of withdrawal (art. L221-28 of the French Consumer Code). Any issue: contact@chipiestudio.com.
