What is the For The Plot Insider Program?

The For The Plot Insider Program is a curated creator collective built for readers who want to champion emotionally resonant storytelling.

Insiders support book launches, ARC campaigns, immersive events, literacy initiatives, and community-driven reading experiences. This is not just an ARC list. It is a collaborative network of readers who care about story, access, and impact.

If you believe books matter beyond the algorithm, you’re in the right place.

Who can apply to become an Insider?

We welcome passionate readers, reviewers, and content creators who actively share books online and engage meaningfully with their communities.

Follower count is not our primary filter. We look for consistency, authenticity, and genuine enthusiasm for diverse storytelling.

Insiders should align with our values around intellectual freedom, anti-censorship, inclusion, and community-centered advocacy.

Both seasoned creators and emerging voices are encouraged to apply.

How do I apply to become an Insider?

Applications are open through our official Insider Application Form:

https://forms.gle/dWzJXHP66SBkJiK38

We review applications on a rolling basis and select Insiders based on content consistency, community engagement, genre alignment, and overall mission fit.

Submission of an application does not guarantee acceptance or placement in a specific campaign. Selected applicants will receive onboarding details, community guidelines, and next steps via email.

If you are not selected immediately, you are welcome to reapply in the future as your platform and content evolve.

Do For The Plot Insiders partner directly with publishers?

For The Plot Books maintains professional relationships with publishers, publicists, and authors to coordinate select ARC campaigns, launch teams, and promotional initiatives.

Insiders do not contract directly with publishers through this program. Campaigns are administered and curated by For The Plot Books to ensure alignment with our values, quality standards, and community mission.

When publisher-supported opportunities arise, they are extended to Insiders through structured campaign briefs and clear deliverable guidelines.

Our role is to bridge the gap between publishing teams and passionate readers while protecting creator autonomy and maintaining ethical standards around disclosure, intellectual freedom, and community safety.

What do Insiders receive?

Depending on campaign selection and tier placement, Insiders may receive:

• Advanced Reader Copies (physical or digital)

• Early campaign access

• Event invitations and pop-up activations

• Exclusive launch team roles

• Literacy initiative opportunities

• Featured amplification through For The Plot channels

Participation is campaign-based. Selection is not guaranteed for every campaign, but engaged Insiders are prioritized for future opportunities.

What is expected of Insiders?

I nsiders are expected to create original content in their own voice, meet campaign timelines, respect embargo and spoiler policies, and clearly disclose gifted materials in accordance with FTC guidelines.

We prioritize thoughtful storytelling over volume. We do not permit AI-generated creative content in campaign deliverables.

Above all, we expect professionalism, respect for authors and community boundaries, and alignment with our mission to protect access to books and amplify diverse voices
