Hi, author here!

Would love to have a public API for readng but don't want supporting it slowing us down when we need to change something. It's just the three of us in our spare time at the moment, so we need the agility!

I really, really like that use case too! Right now all you could do would be to create a collection of books on your profile, but would be nice to have on the book page I think.

> Could I send readers to their choice of bookseller?

We would like to refer people to libraries and indies, but these are obviously fragmented so a bit difficult. I think allowing authors to set a preferred book seller probably makes sense.

Could you please at least create an export button under https://beta.readng.co/settings so that we can migrate to readng.co without having similar concerns that made us to sign up for it today? And ofc it has to be machine-readable, e.g. JSON or XML but CSV should work too (for CSV ideally it would be in the same format as the one from GR to reduce fragmentation in this space). This is also a must under GDPR, so not going to be an effort wasted.

Long term there'll be a button for sure! For now, feel free to email us and I'll take care of it (limited time and all that)
