However, if you're trying to manipulate the reading or review process in an unethical way, such as paying for only positive reviews, then it's not ethical. The purpose of getting someone to read your story should be to improve it, not to deceive others about its quality.
One option is to use freelance platforms. You can post a job on platforms like Fiverr or Upwork, stating that you're willing to pay for someone to read your story and provide feedback. Set a reasonable price based on the length and complexity of your story.
Try showing them some captivating snippets or quotes from the story. And tell them how it has impacted you or others who have read it. That might convince them to give it a go.
Well, one way is to clearly communicate your vision and the key elements you want in the story. Also, maybe offer some incentives or rewards to make it more appealing for them.
You might try reaching out to professional writers or memoirists and explain why your life story is unique and engaging. Offer them the opportunity to shape it into a captivating narrative and potentially provide some incentives or compensation for their work.
No, usually you don't get notified. Social media platforms and apps don't have a built-in feature to inform you when someone takes a screenshot of your story.
It varies by the platform or app. Some give you clear notifications, but others might only show you aggregated view statistics in a separate section that you have to look for.
It depends. In the world of publishing, it's common to hire ghostwriters, which is a form of paying someone to write a story. However, when it comes to personal or creative work where authenticity is key, it's not really ethical. For example, if you enter a writing competition and pay someone else to write your entry, that's cheating.
It depends on the settings of the platform. On some, you get notifications by default, but on others, you have to enable the feature in the settings to receive them when someone watches your story.
