I'm running a survey because I'm writing an explainer piece on what group order managers (GOMs) and group order joiners are, what they do, and the things they face. It's going to be in both the POV of the GOMs and the joiners who are in these group orders.
While I have a good grasp of what GOMs/joiners do and act as someone who actively joins group orders, this will be written to an audience who doesn't know anything or very little about the b/s/t community. Feel free to over-explain certain concepts if needed! There will be some optional questions that will allow you to dive deeper as well as an additional comment section to provide more commentary.
Please do not reveal any specific names or personal information of GOMs and/or joiners. This is NOT an exposé, and we will be omitting any of that from the article. The piece will be published on Tamar Herman's "Notes on K-Pop" newsletter as a part of my writing fellowship! You can find more information about the newsletter here:

Here's some of my work (mostly concert reviews and fanmade documentaries on fandom related things like cupsleeves and concert culture): https://kathleendoan.com/portfolio.
This form will close mid-late July!
If you have any questions about anything on the form, feel free to message me @nhis__ on Instagram.
