book author

A book author is the individual who writes and creates a book’s content, providing the ideas, stories, or information that appear in the publication. Authors develop their work through research, imagination, or analysis, often shaping it through editing and revision. They typically hold the original intellectual property rights for their work, though publishing agreements can transfer some rights. An author’s role is vital in bringing ideas to life, sharing knowledge, entertainment, or perspectives with readers worldwide. Their contribution can range from fiction and poetry to nonfiction and academic texts.
