Content Policy

Last updated: June 10, 2026

1. Original Work Only

  • You must own or hold the rights to everything you publish on Morpholis — the text of every chapter, the cover art, and any other material included in your manuscript.
  • If you are publishing work you did not create yourself (for example, because you licensed it or co-authored it), you must have written permission from the rights holder to publish it here.
  • Morpholis assumes you have the rights to your work. If a valid rights claim is brought against your manuscript, it may be removed while the claim is reviewed.

2. No Plagiarism

  • Plagiarism means passing off someone else's writing, characters, world-building, or ideas as your own. It is strictly prohibited.
  • This includes copying passages from other books, websites, or AI-generated text presented as your own original writing.
  • Morpholis may use automated and manual checks to detect plagiarized content. Manuscripts found to be plagiarized will be rejected or removed.

3. Cover Art and Visuals

  • Cover art and any images in your manuscript must be owned by you or properly licensed for use on a commercial publishing platform.
  • You are responsible for confirming that your cover license permits this kind of use. Stock images, commissioned art, and AI-generated covers are all acceptable only if you hold the appropriate rights.
  • Using someone else's artwork without permission is a violation of this policy and may result in removal of the manuscript.

4. Prohibited Content

  • Sexual content involving minors, or content that sexualizes minors in any form, is strictly prohibited and will result in immediate removal and a permanent ban.
  • Hate speech — content that promotes violence, discrimination, or dehumanization against people based on race, ethnicity, religion, gender, sexual orientation, disability, or similar characteristics — is not allowed.
  • Harassment, including targeted attacks, doxxing, or content designed to intimidate real people, is prohibited.
  • Illegal content, including instructions for carrying out serious crimes, is prohibited.
  • Content that infringes another person's intellectual property is prohibited.

5. Chapter Length (Recommended)

  • We recommend a minimum of approximately 800 words per chapter. This is a recommendation, not a hard rule — shorter chapters are allowed.
  • The 800-word guideline exists because very short chapters tend to give readers a poor experience on a pay-per-chapter platform. Chapters well below this length may still be published, but may underperform.
  • There is no maximum chapter length. Write the length that best serves your story.

6. Review and Enforcement

  • Every manuscript submitted to Morpholis is reviewed by our team before it becomes visible to readers. This review checks for compliance with this Content Policy.
  • Manuscripts that violate this policy may be rejected at the review stage, or removed later if a violation is discovered after publication.
  • Serious or repeated violations may result in loss of publishing privileges or account suspension.
  • If you believe your manuscript was removed or rejected in error, you can appeal through the platform's support channels.
