What Writers Need to Know
NOTHING BINDING BOOK REVIEW PROGRAM
This is a new fully automated book reivew program that can be found at NothingBinding.com. The goal of this program is to provide a free objective review of Independently published books profiled on NothingBinding.com.
We have taken every precaution to insure the integrity of this book review process. NothingBinding.com will do everything possible to maintain an honest and objective book review program. Authors can submit their titles for review or sign up to become a book reviewer.
Authors must have a complete profile on NothingBinding.com to participate in the program, including personal photo—book description—bio—inspiration—book cover—book excerpt—audio or video preferred but not required.
Book Reviewers are not required to be authors.However, they must sign up at Nothing Bindingcom. Each Book Reviewer has the option of remaining anonymous (if preferred) and would never be required to reveal their name.
This is a non-compensated book review process, reviewers are to remain totally objective and agree not to review titles written by friends, family, or where the reviewer is familiar with the author such as an acquaintance, fellow member of a writers group or colleague. Integrity of the program is critical to success.
Reviewers cannot review their own books and there is no guarantee that their own personal titles be reviewed as compensation for becoming an Independent book reviewer.
For the benefit of our authors and readers book reviewers are required to write a 300 to 500 word narrative review of the book.
