Creature Author ARC reader program terms and conditions. Creature Author does not pay for reviews. By agreeing to these terms, the selected reader understands that they will not be financially compensated for their review. Providing selected readers with an ARC in exchange for their honest review is the objective of this program, but the honor system applies. We will not force selected readers to review the work at hand, but not doing so will factor strongly into our consideration of any selected reader's participation with future Creature Author ARC opportunities. Review content and ratings are not taken into consideration for any and all Creature Author ARC opportunities: specific note - providing a negative review will not impede future consideration. It's not Creature Author's position to artificially reflect reader experiences. How a selected reader reviews an ARC is entirely upon the selected reader. There is no required timeline to leaving the review; however, reviews will have the strongest impact if given within the first few months of the novels release. The work is copyright protected with registration through the US Copyright Office. Readers are not permitted to duplicate or redistribute digital copies of the ARC without written permission from Creature Author. We prohibit providing the digital copies of the ARC to reader or summarization programs which may store the material for unauthorized uses (including any and all AI programs). ARC Interest Form data is destroyed after consideration and is not retained by Creature Author, nor is it shared with any 3rd party.
