MyLikith
A multilingual platform to read, write, and publish novels
Hi Indie Hackers! 👋
I’m excited to share MyLikith, a multilingual storytelling platform where readers can discover novels and writers can publish their stories in one place.
I started building MyLikith because I noticed that many talented writers—especially those creating content in regional languages—struggle to find a platform where they can publish, grow an audience, and eventually earn from their work.
MyLikith brings together:
📚 Read novels across multiple genres and languages
✍️ Publish your own stories with ease
🌍 Reach readers from anywhere
💎 Premium memberships and virtual coins for monetization
👥 A growing community of readers and writers
Building this as a bootstrapped founder has been a rewarding challenge. Every feature has been shaped through learning and iteration, and I’m just getting started.
I’d love your feedback:
What would make you try a new reading platform?
What features would you want as a writer?

Thanks for reading! 😊

I'm curious what convinced you the biggest unmet need is giving writers another place to publish rather than helping them build and monetize an audience.
From your conversations with writers, was distribution the recurring pain, or was it earning meaningful income from readers after they were already publishing?
Fair question. In my experience, the pain wasn’t simply finding another place to publish. Publishing was already possible. The bigger gap was distribution, discoverability, and actually turning readers into a sustainable source of income.
Writers can spend months creating a great story, but if they don’t have the tools or audience to consistently reach readers, publishing it somewhere new doesn’t solve the underlying problem. That’s the gap I’m most interested in solving.
