RC1 was founded by authors for authors. Those seeking to be published can receive peer reviews and data-driven feedback to hone a story with the goal of making it a bestseller. Similarly, RC1 provides targeted information to publishers looking for specific kinds of stories. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cAs a start, RC1 will be actively promoted to the B&N Press community of writers through their regular newsletters, website, and other channels. The big opportunity is to use RC1’s feedback exchange to help B&N identify which writers in their ecosystem are ‘rising stars,’ so to speak,\u201d RC1 founder Fred Koehler says in a statement. \u201cHow does the community react to B&N Press stories? Which authors consistently get 5-star reviews? Once identified, B&N Press can promote high-potential writers to their entire ecosystem including their online store. For us, it means more writers swapping critiques on the platform, which helps drive our ecosystem.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

B&N Press is a digital and print self-publishing platform that provides authors tools to create, publish and distribute their books.
