Introducing the 5 by 5 club..for short story authors on Kindle

[Andrew]

Hi everyone,

I'm trying this as an experiment to see if there is any interest.

There's lot's of opportunity to ask for your free stuff to be reviewed, but when your short story goes to 99c or $1 I think these dry up.

So, would FOUR other short story authors like to join me to form a group of five; each of us nominates one of our stories on Kindle, max cost 99c, the other four buy, read, and review the story.

Suggested rules:

1. Only one story
2. Only for 99c / £0.77 in the UK
3. I'll confirm once the group is formed
4. Be (relatively) nice to each other!
5. Review needs to be more than just the stars rating - I guess we are looking for a min of 50 words?
6. Once I've confirmed the group everyone reads and reviews the four other works within two weeks max (let aim for a week)
7. Short story max length 10k words.

Let me know if you are intersted

Thanks

Andy

I'd like to join, but I have a short story anthology. The anthology, "Offbeat Love Stories and More" is only .99c on Amazon. If someone wanted to buy it and just review one of the longer stories in the collection instead of the whole collection I would be ok with that.

Hi Jennfier

Well it looks like it's you and me! So can I suggest we review each others work.

I will follow your suggestion and review one of the stories in your anthology, if you could review my short story. I will find your book and pay for it on Amazon since you will have to pay 99c for a copy of my story It's at:

Many thanks!

Andy

PS if you have any other work you want me to review for you I can 'swap' that for a review of another of my short stories, although this one is scifi, so I would need to check with you that you are happy to review soemthing from that genre.

Thanks

Andy
