Listen "S51E2 - Being an Author in Reader Spaces"
Episode Synopsis
Bad behavior from authors has been causing all sorts of drama across the online book community recently, and much of it stems from authors interacting within reader spaces.
Reader spaces are places like BookTok or Storygraph, where readers go to review, build community, and share their favorite (and sometimes least favorite) books. For authors, those spaces can serve as a great way to find and build an audience - if you don't ostracize anyone in the process.
In this episode, our hosts talk about the benefits and potential pitfalls of being an author in a reader space, and how to best navigate it without ending up infamous in book circles.
