First off, this looks like such a excellent and exciting addition to an already great platform! I'm an artist & author and in May I will be launching to Kickstarter the physical editions of my illustrated novel. Would I be able to use Reedsy Discovery to later launch my ebook edition of my novel to the various self publishing platforms for the first time?
@naomi_vandoren Definitely! Only fully produced books can be submitted to Discovery. By the time you get to publishing, we'll have a pretty strong community of reviewers and readers. Take a look at our launch guide for more info: https://reedsy.com/discovery/blo...

@emmanuelnataf@mattjohncobb@ricardofayet@ferrolho@tiagobabo This sounds like a product that definitely fills a gap in the market. I'm a children's picture book author (ages 4-8) and I'm curious if there's a niche of reviewers or other services that fit my genre. Thanks!
@mattjohncobb@ricardofayet@ferrolho@tiagobabo@javier_garay Hello Javier, we are working on an update so illustrated books can be uploaded. If you check back later this month, the option should be available. We do already have reviewers for children's picture books :)

Is this for fiction only? The word 'stories' implies fiction only to me. I only edit nonfiction.
I am a big fan for Reedsy, I have used their service and edited and published 3 books in around a year. When they sent an email about their new service Reedsy Discovery, I submitted my latest book "Anchor System Thinking". Within days the book received an in depth review.
I would love it if they add the feature to add all my published books, not just my latest. Independent authors would love this service, I also suggest to lower the price to 25$ and maybe add higher packages with more reviews and not just one.

Pros:
Excellent reviewing service for indie authors.
Cons:
Should have a feature to add old books and not just pre-launch
Price should be lower, maybe 25$

great
Pros:Great way to discover some less popular authors.
Cons:Waiting for the platform to grow and have more authors to choose from.
I signed up for Reedsy Discovery as soon as I saw the e-mail this morning. Sign-up and submission were straight forward and simple.
Pros:It's great to see Reedsy expanding their services. Reviews are very important for book launches.
Cons:Author bio is too short. The only thing which was odd is that my book won't appear for a couple of weeks.
