Open Thread for Authors (Author Promo) for November 2018
Misc / Need A Rec!Author Promotion / Open Thread / Promotion2 Comments
Welcome to the Promotional Thread for Authors. What’s this you say? I read quite a few blogs outside the romance blogosphere and many of the big ones have a daily open thread where the commenters drive the bus.
The rules for Author Promo Night Open Thread are as follows:
The book has to be released in that month (i.e., anything released during the last week of February would be a March release)
All authors, including self-published authors, are welcome, as long as the book is a romance or has strong romantic elements. Think about the readership. I.e., does your non fiction book about psoriasis really fit?
You can post for yourself or you can have a friend post for you if the idea of posting about your book paralyzes you.
This one is more of a guideline than a rule, but be smart about your comment because if it is just a link to your website and the title of your book, I doubt you are going to get any interest.
DA reserves the right to delete the post if it promotes objectionable content (i.e., no daddy/daughter incest recommends are going to be allowed. Sorry.)
That’s it. Post away.
Hey Jayne and readers! What a fantastic idea! My debut supernatural romance novel WILD DARK releases on 11/23 in both Kindle and paperback editions on Amazon. I’ll put a synopsis below. As a first time author, I’m totally awestruck at the amazing community of readers out there…it’s even more enthusiastic than I realized when approaching book sharing as just a book lover! (reading, of course, is my next true love to writing) So, thank you for the opportunity to get the word out there about WILD DARK!
Kelly Buddenhagen
Two and a half years ago, twenty-three-year-old Clara Fallow was found unconscious and alone at the scene of a house fire with no memory of why she had even been at the abandoned property. Clara tries to move on from that mysterious night by spending her days babysitting three spoiled suburban kids, doing her best to ignore their parents’ smug superiority, and suppressing any desire for a better life by partying with her shallow boyfriend. But when a stranger shows up outside of her work gig one summer day, Clara can’t deny that he knows something about both the blaze and her past. Too bad the truth isn’t so easy to discern when you’re a girl with more trust issues than your town can boast ears of corn. In rural Campbell, Pennsylvania, that’s a whole heck of a lot. Secrets, strangers, and the supernatural aren’t so extraordinary in this sleepy little village. And, as Clara learns, nothing happens by chance.
WILD DARK is a mystery, romance, and Christian allegory about the insidious effects of spiritual warfare and the good God that has never forsaken us.
I’m with Kelly. What a nice forum for authors. My debut novella is free now through 1 November on amazon for e-books only. It falls under contemporary, raunchy romance.
THE SAILOR’S TILLER is going to make you want to buy a boat and try out some new positions because it’s sexy.
It’s also going to make you think about carrying an empty yogurt container in your purse for emergency situations because it’s real.
Possibly, it’s going to convince you to buy a plane ticket to Hawaii because everyone loves a good escape.
Happy reading – https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07JR5CVZS
