FAQ
How can I become a book influencer?
First, actively follow and support authors in the book community. Create a professionally branded, public profile on popular social media platforms with a bookish name for your influencer identity. Then read and post about the books you read. Most importantly, review books and inspire others! We work with influencers who post new, relevant book content consistently, have an established following, and get healthy engagement on their posts.
If I join the LMPR Influencer Network am I obligated to review everything Lydia Michaels writes?
No. The Influencer Network keeps you informed but never obligated.
Lydia Michaels treasures her professional relationships with the book influencer community. Her goal is to provide you with fresh, relevant content on a regular basis.
You are never required to post or accept ARCs, but we hope you do. We hope the teasers, ARCs, and material we provide is irresistible and exactly what you want to share on your platform.
I recently applied to LMPR’s Influencer Network. How will I know if I’m accepted?
If you meet the LMPR qualifications above, you will automatically be added to the LMPR network. Make sure you join the Facebook group (link in the LMPR application). Due to the volume of requests, we do not respond to individual applications. If you require a assistance, please contact LMPR directly.
Do you send physical paperbacks to influencers?
Book mail is so much fun! Yes, we do send galley paperbacks to influencers within the US. To get on our paperback mailing list, make sure you are posting unboxing videos and bookstagram photography on your platform regularly. You should also tag Lydia Michaels frequently in stories, posts, and reviews, as much as possible. Propose a collaboration by telling us how you plan to share your mail through posts, videos, and stories.
How do I find my Amazon review link?
Log into Amazon and click on “Account”. Scroll down until you see “Ordering and Shopping Preferences”. Click “Your Amazon Profile”.
All of your reviews are there. Find the review you want. Click “See full review”. Click the “Permalink” link at the bottom of your review. Highlight the URL at the top of the page. This is the direct link to your Amazon review.
What if I didn’t like the book or it was a DNF? Do I still review?
Yes. ARCs are given in exchange for honest reviews. In order to stay on our ARC-approved list, all claimed ARCs should be reviewed and accounted for. We advise that you avoid spoilers, keep it professional, balance negative feedback with positive feedback, and remember that authors are people, too.
