⚡ STORYDRIVE™ — GIVE YOUR PARKING SPOT MOMENTUM
Give one WritersFreak.com Parking Spot 1,000 additional recorded views.
You already built the Parking Spot.
Maybe it promotes your book, author page, story, podcast, audiobook, screenplay, article, writing service, publishing project, business or one particular piece of content you want more people to find.
If you want me to help move more people toward that page, that is what StoryDrive™ is for.
THE PARKING SPOT PUBLISHES IT.
STORYDRIVE™ MOVES IT.
STORYDRIVE™ 1000 — $299
1,000 additional recorded Parking Spot views.
One active, eligible Parking Spot.
Up to 12 months for delivery.
The campaign starts with the number already showing on your Parking Spot’s public view counter and works to add 1,000 recorded views from there.
If it ends up getting more than 1,000 additional recorded views, great. I am not charging you for the extras.
⭐ WHAT STORYDRIVE™ INCLUDES
- Promotion of one active, eligible WritersFreak.com Parking Spot
- A 1,000-view increase from the campaign’s recorded starting number
- Up to 12 months for delivery
- Distribution through the methods available to WritersFreak.com
- Campaign progress displayed by the public Parking Spot view counter
- No bidding system
- No premium position to buy

You purchase StoryDrive™ once.
StoryDrive™ works to move the selected Parking Spot from its starting counter to the campaign goal.
I’m trying to move the page, not run a parking meter.
⭐ HOW STORYDRIVE™ WORKS
1. CREATE YOUR PARKING SPOT
Create and publish a full-page Parking Spot on WritersFreak.com.
Your Parking Spot might feature:
- Your book, author page or entire body of work
- One particular story, chapter, article, essay, poem, script, podcast episode or series
- A podcast, audiobook, newsletter, YouTube channel or other storytelling platform
- An editor, publisher, ghostwriter, narrator, designer, producer, agent, coach or writing service
- A book launch, literary event, writing class, crowdfunding campaign or publishing project
- AI and writing, publishing, screenwriting, audiobooks, book marketing, literary history, copyright or another subject around words
- A writing tool, publishing service, literary business or something else built around the world of words
It just has to genuinely belong somewhere inside the world of writing, storytelling or the world around words and comply with current policies and applicable law.
2. PURCHASE STORYDRIVE™ 1000
Purchase the one-time $299 StoryDrive™ campaign.
3. IDENTIFY THE PARKING SPOT
Tell me which active WritersFreak.com Parking Spot you want StoryDrive™ to promote.
4. THE STARTING COUNTER IS RECORDED
I document the number displayed on the Parking Spot’s public view counter when the campaign is activated.
That becomes the campaign’s starting point.
5. WATCH THE COUNTER MOVE
StoryDrive™ works to increase the public counter by 1,000 recorded views within the campaign period.
That is it.
⭐ THE PUBLIC COUNTER KEEPS IT SIMPLE
You do not have to rely on some vague advertising report or hunt through a complicated dashboard to see the basic campaign goal.
The Parking Spot displays its view counter publicly.
For example:
- Starting counter: 640 views
- StoryDrive™ commitment: 1,000 additional recorded views
- Campaign goal: 1,640 total views
When the public counter reaches 1,640, the 1,000-view StoryDrive™ commitment has been delivered.
If it keeps going to 1,800, 2,500 or 5,000?
Good. Keep the views.
I am not sending you another invoice because the page performed better than the minimum campaign commitment.
VISIBLE STARTING NUMBER.
VISIBLE GOAL.
VISIBLE RESULT.
⭐ WHAT COUNTS AS A RECORDED VIEW?
A recorded view is a page view added to the public counter on the selected Parking Spot after StoryDrive™ is activated.
Recorded views are not represented as unique visitors.
A visitor may return to the page to:
- Watch an embedded video
- Look through photographs or graphics
- Read the story, article, excerpt or other writing
- Check book, author, podcast, project or business details
- Look at what you offer
- Review pricing
- Check an update
- Copy contact information
- Follow one of your links
- Share the page with somebody else
Qualifying views recorded after campaign activation count toward the 1,000-view goal, including views generated through StoryDrive™ distribution, direct sharing, your own promotion and returning visitors.
⭐ YOU CAN PROMOTE THE PARKING SPOT TOO
StoryDrive™ does not replace your own promotion.
You can move the URL around as much as you want.
- YouTube
- Podcasts, newsletters or blogs
- Facebook, Instagram, X or LinkedIn
- Email or text messages
- Your website
- Your readers, writing group, publisher, school, organization or business network
- Direct outreach to readers, reviewers, publishers, agents, bookstores, clients or somebody interested in the subject
- QR codes or printed material
If it is your YouTube channel, put the URL in your descriptions.
If one particular book, story, article, podcast or project needs attention, send the Parking Spot directly to people who might actually care.
If you are an author, writer or creator, share it with the audience you already have.
If you are raising money for a legitimate project, put the page where potential supporters can find it.
If you are a writing-related business, share the page explaining what you offer.
You can promote the page yourself.
You can use StoryDrive™.
Or you can do both.
CREATE THE PAGE.
THEN MOVE IT.

StoryDrive™ does not change the rules for what belongs on Writers Freak. The Parking Spot must remain eligible under current Freak Sites policies and applicable law.

⭐ THE 12-MONTH VIEW COMMITMENT
StoryDrive™ has up to 12 months from activation to deliver the full 1,000-view increase.
The selected Parking Spot must remain active, publicly accessible and compliant with the current Freak Sites Terms, WritersFreak.com content standards, applicable law and current StoryDrive™ Terms throughout the campaign.
If the full 1,000-view increase is not delivered within 12 months, the remaining undelivered views will be made good at no additional charge.
The remaining views may be applied to the same eligible Parking Spot or one other eligible WritersFreak.com Parking Spot without purchasing another StoryDrive™ campaign.
If you remove the Parking Spot, a book launch ends, an event passes, a crowdfunding campaign closes, the content materially changes or the Parking Spot becomes ineligible under current policies, the campaign may end or be transferred according to the current StoryDrive™ Terms.
⭐ WHAT STORYDRIVE™ GUARANTEES
StoryDrive™ guarantees the described 1,000-view increase to the public counter of one selected, eligible Parking Spot, subject to the current StoryDrive™ Terms.
StoryDrive™ does not guarantee:

StoryDrive™ delivers recorded views to the page.
What happens after somebody arrives depends on what you parked there.
A writer might catch the attention of a new reader.
An author or publisher might receive an inquiry.
A crowdfunding project might pick up a supporter.
A writing-related business might discover a customer or client.
Or somebody might simply look around and leave.
StoryDrive™ does not promise which one will happen.
STORYDRIVE™ GUARANTEES THE VIEWS.
THE PARKING SPOT HAS TO DO THE REST.

⭐ STORYDRIVE™ FAQ
ARE THE 1,000 VIEWS UNIQUE VISITORS?
No. StoryDrive™ measures the increase displayed by the public Parking Spot view counter. A person may visit a Parking Spot more than once.
CAN I SHARE AND PROMOTE THE PARKING SPOT MYSELF?
Absolutely. It is your page to promote. Qualifying recorded views added after StoryDrive™ begins count toward the campaign goal.
WHAT IF STORYDRIVE™ PRODUCES MORE THAN 1,000 ADDITIONAL VIEWS?
Enjoy them. The 1,000-view increase is the campaign commitment, not a limit. I do not charge you extra because the Parking Spot received more views.
WHAT HAPPENS WHEN THE COUNTER INCREASES BY 1,000?
The StoryDrive™ campaign commitment has been delivered. The Parking Spot can keep receiving additional views after StoryDrive™ has finished doing what you purchased it to do.
DO YOU THROTTLE MY PARKING SPOT AFTER STORYDRIVE™ ENDS?
No. StoryDrive™ ending does not turn off or cap the Parking Spot’s ability to receive additional views.
WHAT IF MY BOOK, PROJECT, EVENT OR OFFER CHANGES?
Update the Parking Spot so it stays accurate. If the change affects StoryDrive™ eligibility, contact support before removing the page. Remaining campaign views may be handled or transferred according to the current StoryDrive™ Terms.
DOES STORYDRIVE™ GUARANTEE READERS, SALES OR A PUBLISHING DEAL?
No. StoryDrive™ guarantees the recorded view increase described on this page under its current Terms. It does not guarantee what visitors will do after reaching the page.
