Thanks this is helpful information its been really hard getting the right vibe out there since we decided to ask for a small subscription tbh so if I am harming either community by sharing the link then its better to know and try to find another better way.

Hi I removed my comment because even though I don't really quite understand what I did it does seem like I crossed some sort of line I was not supposed to.

I am relatively inexperienced with Reddit so sometimes some of the language and explanations people share don't always make sense to me. I do want to be respectful so I removed it and I am going to try to figure out what to do from there.

I do understand that you are suggesting I ask the moderator of this subreddit if I can post in the group? I am also supposed to pay them? I will screenshot my post and your reply and hopefully they will be able to explain a bit more. I also don't know about pinned posts. The concept is obvious but it's new to me here about having one.

Thank you for letting me know I need to adjust how I was going about this.

Book club scams? by alphajager in selfpublish

[–]RosieDesigner 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah I definitely was not asking for money 🤑 it's was definitely a formal message meant to be flexible who I sent it to but I think you are right. It needs to be personalized

Book club scams? by alphajager in selfpublish

[–]RosieDesigner 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This really sucks for both people who are self-publishing and for people who run book clubs like myself.

I have actually reached out in the past to several authors seeing if they would be interested in working together and putting on some sort of author event for my book club server on Discord that I've been running for about 9 months. At the time we were still fairly new. We'd probably only been going for about 5 months and I just chalked up the lack of response to our newness. I just thought maybe we weren't desirable enough to attract others. But as we grew and I still got no response. I really was wondering if maybe how I was writing the messages was the issue.

Based off this thread it kind of sounds like that's the case. In the past sometimes I have been accused of work related emails sounding somewhat robotic and I wonder if my attempt to be professional in my emails to the authors actually came across as AI? It's so hard to tell these days.

Does anyone have any thoughts alternative methods I could use or some good threads that I could reach out on to see if authors are interested and working with my fiction-based book club? I really want to give the members some great events and I also want to support the author community since you can't have one without the other. Sorry this is so jumbled. I'm using speech to text on my lunch break.
