Every Friday I feature an independently published book over on the Penoaks' FB page. While most of these books have been serviced by Penoaks, I want to expand the pool and start featuring books by friends and friends of friends. The only requirement is that they be independently published.

https://www.facebook.com/penoaks/timeline

If you're interested in having your book considered for a feature, reply with a link to your book (or the book's page on your website) and a short one or two-line summary.

I'm also on the lookout for blog posts to feature on our "Tip Tuesdays." If written a writing advice/theory/useful tip post, even if it's a few months old, that you're proud of, please comment with the link!

I've started collecting some links to helpful blog posts for authors and I put them on this page on my blog: https://faithblum.wordpress.com/for-authors/. If you'd prefer individual links, let me know and I can get those instead.

Also, do you want me to post the links to all my books (11) or just my website page where you can get the links to my books?

I'd prefer to feature your books separately--that way I can get more weeks' worth of content out of you! ;) Why don't you give me your top three for starters (whichever three are your best, or the ones you want promoted most right now).

Oh. What did you mean? :rofl: This is what happens when I write messages while distracted. :roll: Thanks for letting me know which three of your books were top priority, though! :D

I wonder if my A Year in Verse might suit. Poetry (over 60 poems, mostly blank verse) organized around the various cycles of a year, each accompanied by a piece of public-domain artwork.

I meant that I would give you this link and from there, you could get the links to each of my books if you clicked on the cover for the book.

I put them on there in the order I'd like them to be used. :D

Also, I just read this blog post written by our very own Lady Anna Briar. It's really good.

I recently published a book, I could give you the link. Should I wait until the paper back is also available?

No need on my account! It will probably be a few weeks before yours gets up in the queue, anyway.
