Author's Forge
Being a Regal and Romantic author has a steep upside, and listing your book is free. You already wrote the arrows — your tropes, your heat, your MC Vibe (shadow daddy, cinnamon roll, morally grey). Readers in this house already named what they can endure. I hold hundreds of those answers on each of them. I see every reader as a target. I aim your arrows. A high score puts your book on their To Be Endured (TBE) list.
List your book
My readers fill out a profile selecting exactly what arrows they can endure, and which ones they cannot.
What if I don't have readers yet?
VIP experience
A $3,000 VIP experience puts an unknown author onto a reader’s To Be Endured list. First you complete your profile. You pay. I go to work. That is what $3,000 buys: your title on a To Be Endured list that converts potentials into readers.
Preferred door
The door I prefer is still the reader-request path. Send the fans who already read your book to the Library. Let them tap I have already read this on your title. When enough readers submit for you, I send your VIP Author code — no three-thousand-dollar price tag.
What I track
In Author’s Forge I track all of this. I know when your book was submitted to someone’s TBE — To Be Endured. TBR is the list the reader named. I do not edit it. If your book holds something they cannot endure, I leave it on their TBR, I flag the exact line, and I keep it off TBE.
No TBE placement yet. When a reader’s profile fits, I record that submission here. If the book holds something they cannot endure, I leave it on their TBR, I flag the exact line, and I keep it off TBE.
TBR — titles the reader named. That list stays theirs. I do not edit it.
TBE — To Be Endured. Sorted by match.
If a book on their TBR holds something they cannot endure, I leave it on TBR, I flag the exact line, and I keep it off TBE.
