Romance Writers Community Guidelines, Terms & Approval Policy
1) Mission & Standards
This community studio is a legal, professional romance-writing community built on craft, class, and credibility. We write romance with maturity and romanticism—not porn, not smut, not shock content.
By joining, you agree to uphold these standards and protect the integrity of the community.
2) Earnings Statement + Disclaimer (Required)
Romance writing can create income through book sales, royalties, subscriptions/serialization, audiobooks, bundles, tips, licensing, and author experiences. Results vary widely based on consistency, publishing cadence, skill development, genre alignment, pricing, marketing, platform rules, and market conditions.
EARNINGS DISCLAIMER: Any earnings discussions, examples, or projections shared in this community are for educational purposes only and do not guarantee outcomes. We do not promise specific income, sales, followers, rankings, or royalties. You are responsible for your business decisions, taxes, and compliance with applicable laws and platform terms. Nothing here is legal, financial, or tax advice.
3) Unbreakable Rules (Zero Exceptions)
A) Content Rules — NO Exceptions
- NO smut. NO porn.
- NO underage content—EVER. NO minors. No, “barely legal.” No age-play. No “teen.” No school settings implying minors. No loopholes.
- NO plagiarism. NO copying. No “light rewrites” of published books. No scraped content. No passing off others’ work as yours.
- NO shaming, degradation, or humiliation. NO hate, harassment, threats, slurs, or targeting of any person or group.
- NO content that undermines the authority, credibility, safety, mission, or reputation of this community.
B) Behavior Rules—One Strike Can Mean Removal
- No rude, crude, abusive, or harmful behavior.
- No bullying, intimidation, stalking, doxxing, coercion, or manipulation.
- No spam, scams, or aggressive solicitation.
- No “cold DMs” pitching services to members (unless explicitly permitted by staff).
If you can’t be respectful, you can’t be here.
4) Approval Before Posting (Mandatory)
Everything submitted MUST be approved before it is posted and before entry/visibility in the community.
- Mods may approve, reject, request edits, or remove content at any time.
- If you post unapproved content, it may be removed immediately.
How to submit for approval: Post in the designated “SUBMISSIONS/APPROVAL” category (or send it to the approved channel you provide) and wait for a green light.
5) Copyright, Ownership & Protection
- Only submit material you created or have the legal right to use.
- Copyright: Original work is generally protected by copyright as soon as it is created and fixed in tangible form (written/recorded).
- By submitting content here, you confirm you own the rights (or have permission) and understand it may be reviewed for moderation and compliance.
We will protect this community and its creators with every resource available to us, including removal, documentation, platform reporting, and escalation where appropriate.
6) Enforcement (Read This Twice)
Violations will be met with immediate action—including removal of content and expulsion from the community.
Expulsion will follow any rude, crude, or harmful activity. NO debate. No drama. No second chances for serious violations.
7) Reporting & Safety
If you see rule-breaking content, report it to moderators immediately. If content indicates minors, exploitation, or illegal activity, we will remove it and may escalate through platform/official channels as required.
