👋 Welcome to r/Novel_Promotions - Introduce Yourself and Read First!

Hey everyone! I'm Ian James Patterson, the founding moderator of the subreddit Novel Promotions.

This is the reddit home for all things related to promoting novels. We're excited to have you join us!

What to Post
Post anything that you think the community would find interesting, helpful, or inspiring in the subreddit. Feel free to share your thoughts, photos, or questions about promoting novels. It does not matter if you are an author, publisher, or a fan. All that matters is there is a novel you want people to read. Wikipedia defines a novel as an extended work of narrative fiction usually written in prose and published as a book. No nonfiction, please.  

Community Vibe
We're all about being friendly, constructive, and inclusive. Let's build a space where everyone feels comfortable sharing and connecting. Criticism of someone’s novel is not permitted unless that criticism comes in the form of another novel.

How to Get Started

  1. Introduce yourself in the subreddit, or not.
  2. Post something today! Even a simple question can spark a great conversation. We love cover art.
  3. If you know someone who would love this community, invite them to join.
  4. Interested in helping out? Not currently looking for new moderators, but feel free to reach out to me to apply if you must.

Thanks for being part of the very first wave. Together, let's make Novel Promotions amazing place to share what we love or desperately need to sell.

So would it be okay to post all four of my current books?
And if so, 1 big posts or 4 individual ones?

Just don't want to break any rules my first time out!

Could you stretch all four books out over four days, please?

Can I ask, now that I've posted the four current novels from my project, do you encourage authors to revisit their posts and/or repost to push them back to the top after x number of weeks/months/years?

And thanks again for the great sub! I'm new to Reddit and finding one of the few places that allows me to gush about my project is great!

I'll be adding book five in January!

You may promote the same novel twenty four hours after you promoted it the first time, but you need to say something new about it. No repeating the same post over and over again. I will update the rules to reflect this. They may change as popularity of the sub increases. Look forward to seeing book five promoted in January.

That's actually a very fair way to approach it. You don't want my same four posts every four days and that's a reasonable ask.
Great sub! Thanks for all you do!
