Joshua Grant | 28 comments Hello everyone! My name is Josh Grant, fellow author, reader, and founder of Diabolic Shrimp. I’m still on my epic quest to read and review one novel from every author on the planet! On my shrimptastic site there are several ways to have your book bought and reviewed for free (or to receive free books if you’re a reader).

1) Just join Diabolic Shrimp (it’s free and no hassle). I buy several books every week from our list of authors and eventually review them on Amazon, Goodreads, and Diabolic Shrimp. You also get to advertise your books for free on the site while you wait to be read and reviewed.

2) The Shrimp Tank. Everything you do on Diabolic Shrimp earns you Shrimp Tank tickets (things like sharing the site or supporting other authors). I draw one of these each month and buy and review a book from that author.

3) Shrimp it Forward. Each month, you can come back to Diabolic Shrimp and nominate an author for the Shrimp it Forward drawing if you wish. This earns you Shrimp Tank tickets and the author with the most nominations each month will have their book bought and reviewed by me.

4) Become a Mantis Shrimp. Coming Fall 2018, anyone who I have reviewed will have the opportunity to become a Mantis Shrimp and have more of their books purchased. I’ll be revealing more on this later! 

5) I also buy several books each month and give them away to readers, but there’s no guarantee you’ll receive a review for these.

If you’re interested in any of this, come check out Diabolic Shrimp at the link below! I hope to see (and read) many of you there!

William B. (williambnaylor) | 13 comments Josh, I am deeply impressed with the delightful concept you have launched. The free wheeling fun surface of it and the well thought out categories and possibilities underpinning it provide for both those that love to tell a story and those that love to read one. I submitted my humble offerings immediately. Can't wait to learn and engage more with your wonderful offering. Thank you so much for this breath of fresh air!

Sincerely,

Will Naylor

Thanks for the very kind words William! I really appreciate that. Yeah, I know just how difficult it is to find a place that lets you advertise or have your book read without a million rules or price tags attached to it. I wanted to create a haven from that, all while getting to make a difference in the world. I'm happy you're with us! :)
