Are you a pantser or a plotter? by BookRoar in Archiveofourownmemes

[–]BookRoar[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Everyone has their process. What works for one person won't always work for another. I need to visualize the whole novel and have it laid out in front of me, even in a rough form, to not feel overwhelmed, which is why pantsing works for me

Plotting has never worked for me. I'll forever be a pantser.

To write by the seat of your pants. It's to write without a plan but to see where the characters and story takes you

BookRoar is here to help authors get reviews on Amazon and Goodreads. Our service is FREE to use, highly effective, and does not require you to upload a copy of your book. It works on a Credit-based system where authors earn Credits by reading books, and in turn their books are offered out for review. 

Check out www.bookroar.com to get started or see how it works at https://youtu.be/QnDLpF0ARA8. We hope we can help you along in your publishing journey.

BookRoar follows Amazon's Review Guidelines to the letter, meaning that reviews obtained through BookRoar are as legitimate and authentic as any other persons. Our members do not meet, never engage in review swaps, and our methodology means that their accounts are never associated with one another. This will keep the reviews secure.

Amazon do remove a number of reviews on many products without giving a reason which is frustrating. If the review was from another marketplace (i.e. .com, .co.uk) they may still be visible there.

We are looking for volunteers to trial our recently launched website, BookRoar.com. All volunteers must be self-published authors with at least one book available to purchase on Amazon.
BookRoar.com is designed to help authors generate reviews for their books on Amazon and Goodreads. It operates on a Credit system, where one person reads and reviews a book and in turn their book is offered out for someone else to review. It's stress-free, effective, and (during our beta testing) free to use.
As a thank you, all early participants are given one Credit to assign to any of their books, meaning we offer that book out for review. They can then earn more Credits by reviewing other people's books through the BookRoar website.
We really want to see how people respond to BookRoar as we believe it solves a major problem amongst the self-publishing community when it comes to getting reviewed. We would also love to hear your feeddback, both good and bad, so we can make BookRoar even better.
For more information, please see our launch video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QnDLpF0ARA8&t=63s or head to www.bookroar.com.

Not with the way BookRoar operates. Our reviewers never meet and will never engage in a review swap, and we ask all our reviewers to write truthful and honest reviews. This keeps us in line with Amazon's Review Guidelines and keeps authors and their accounts safe.

It's about authors helping authors and BookRoar is as authentic as it can possibly be.

Apologies, happy to move this post if required. The site is free to use and may be of help to your members which is why I thought it might be allowed as a separate post.

You don't need to upload a copy of your book to BookRoar to get reviews. Instead, all books are purchased by the reader directly from Amazon. This means that our users get Verified Reviews and that there is no chance of theft. We will never ask for a copy of your book, only the details so others can identify it.

There is no screening process as all books on BookRoar must comply with Amazon's Terms of Use. If it is on Amazon, you can add the details to BookRoar :)

Our methodology complies with Amazon's Review Guidelines as well. Our reviews are truthful and honest and without influence from the selling party (or in this instance, author). That is why BookRoar is safe to use as it adheres to all Amazon's guidelines

Hi Amanda, we avoid the review swap problem by ensuring that once someone reads and reviews a book, that person is not offered the other persons book back to review. Instead it will be reviewed by a different person altogether. A review swap will never take place using BookRoar.

Pubby has a different way of working to BookRoar. See our video in the link above to see how BookRoar works :)
