How to get more reviews on fan fiction.net?
I used to get a TON of reviews in the Hunger Games fandom. It's been really slow in recent months, though. Any tips on how to get more reviews? Thanks!

One reason being is that the movie-hype has died down a bit since November, so many ppl are focused on Divergence and The Fault in our Stars, so a lot of attention will be given towards those books/movies. I'm sure you still have your regulars who keep up with your fanfic(s). You might need to promote/advertise it more. Like on Y!A for instance, Twitter, Instagram, the list goes on of social media sites...
Try commenting insightful comments/replies on other fanfics relating to HG and refer those authors and their readers to go check out your story.
And, if you don't already do this, maybe try, at the end of each chapter, adding a little authors note thanking your fans, asking more ppl to comment what they like so far in the story, some of my fav fanfics (all 1D though...) ask questions at the end of each chapter like(complete examples: "How do you like this relationship b/w x and y?" or "Did you like x's outfit in this scene?" or "what do you think x saw when she walked into the room and screamed?") And ask your readers if they would help promoting your fanfic to some of their friends.
Oh and another thing, some that I read, along with the aforementioned info., those authors will sometimes write personal notes in the ANs like (ex: why they didn't post last Tuesday or that they and their bf just broke up and so that weeks chapter may resemble a bit of their feelings) Idk, I feel it's kind of cool when the authors do that, it makes them seem more real, other than some fanfic site that updates with a new chapter once every week.


Good luck I'm sure your content is good, it's mostly just a matter of promoting it nowSmile
