I’ve never seen another author do this for their fanbase…and I’m so excited.
If you’ve read any of my books, you’re in! You’re officially a Starburst.
You’re part of an elite club of readers that gets some epic perks, privileges, and of course, my undying gratitude. 🙂
Who is a Starburst?
Anyone who has read any of my books.
There’s no entrance fee, no signup form, no hassle. If you’ve read one of my books and you want to be a Starburst, you are.
You can announce it to the whole world, or you can keep your status quietly to yourself. Either is okay!
(If you want fanfare of a dramatic declaration, drop a comment at the end of this article that says “I AM A STARBURST.” I can’t wait to celebrate you!!)
Starburst-only PERKS…
One of my values is to treat my readers well.
(I actually haggled down the price of my book for a signing event a bookstore hosted for me last weekend, lol.)
I want to love God and love people, but I’m also grateful for all of you. So Starbursts get extra entries for every single giveaway I ever host.
Starburst Perks might include more in the future, so feel free to message me if you have ideas for other perks.
Info on how to claim Starburst Giveaway Perks at the end of this article!
You get permission…
Since you’re a Starburst, I’ll let you in on a little secret. I don’t know if all authors are this way, but I almost never refer to my books by their full names in my head and notes.
I love the full names of my books, but they’re long! So you have my permission to use the abbreviations too. 🙂
Beyond the Mirage = BtM
Fantastical Summer = FS
Test it out, see how it feels! Drop a comment with the names of my books that you’ve read (and use our code names)!
I feel like I’m starting a secret society, which is obviously a super cool thing all authors should do. 😉
My debut novel is on sale for $1, this week only!! It’s about four people with extremely different personalities stuck on a road trip together. Tensions rise, secrets are spilled, and you might really love it. Snag it for $1 here: https://www.amazon.com/Beyond-Mirage-Vella-Karman-ebook/dp/B0GXH3M73D/
FAUQs (Funny And Useful Questions)
If you want to be a Starburst and you’ve read any of my books, you’re in!
The Starburst are my reader fanbase, just like the “Swifties” are Taylor Swift’s fanbase and the “Nerdfighters” are John Green’s fanbase. Like those examples, you don’t need to do anything official to join, but you can drop a comment to celebrate. 🙂
Starbursts get 1 extra entry for every giveaway I ever host.
It’s super easy to claim, and if there’s another way to gain extra entries (for example, tag three friends), the 1 extra entries is on TOP of all other extra entries.
Starburst Perks only count for giveaways hosted by me. Anything hosted with other authors, by KingSumo or my publisher, don’t count. However, the MAJORITY of giveaways I participate in are hosted by yours truly.
Email Giveaways: Enter like normal, then shoot me an email (or fill out my contact form //link//). The word “Starburst” must be in the email. Please specify the name/prize of the giveaway you’re entering.
Social Media Giveaways: Enter like normal, and then leave a separate comment on the post that says “Starburst.”
I can’t wait to answer that question, but I want to give it all the attention it deserves, so I plan to post a full article about it next week. Keep an eye out!!
I’ve never seen another author give their fanbase extra entries to all future giveaways, just for being readers. 🙂
I don’t know how it will go, but you guys are worth it. Thanks so much for being here. <3
