I have one and only one supreme rule above all.
Please, during the period within which I review your book, be active 24/7. I don't mean be glued to your screen waiting for a comment from me. What I mean is that when you receive a notification from me, answer it promptly. At least before the end of 24-48hrs, you should have responded,
If you can't make it in that week when I review, please tell me earlier on so that I can reschedule your book.
WHEN I GIVE YOU FEEDBACK, ALWAYS REPLY AND REPLY FAST. This way you can try to get used to responding to your readers while they are online. It helps build a relationship with your not so silent readers and makes them comfortable.
But for the sake of I, reply to my comments quickly. It will help me interact with you and understand your work better.
We are trying to make your work better not get one more read, okay? If you respond fast enough, I can help you build your work into a smaller version of whatever master piece you envisioned.
We'll do editing on grammar, vocabulary and writing style. Plot is out of my hands- I cannot help with that.
As soon as I tell you something, I expect you to take immediate action. Let's say you got a tense or punctuation wrong, fix it before the end of two days.
I get that you're busy and all, but this is a minor reformation process. Make quick time to make the small changes. If you're too busy while I'm reviewing your book, please come back later.
- please, I repeat, please, respond. Don't be a stiff board and thank without asking questions as to why the work would be queer that way. Don't let me write a long comment and you just shove it off as 'really helpful.'
The thing is that I took my time, and I'd like to see you actively infest a similar amount of energy as I did.
PENALTY; I'll not continue reviewing your book. If I have the energy for it, I will delete the comments I put in your book.
2. You can dm me if you feel like the restraints of being polite for the public are killing you. You can be as free as possible. Curse if you must but don't get abusive.
I guess that's it. There aren't many rules. Maybe when other reviewers come in, I'll adjust everything.
