Authors, what’s the best reader interaction you've ever had? Promote your work here! April 2026 Self-Promotion thread

Promote Your Books

Hi r/RomanceBooks - have you written a book? Feel free to promote it here! Post a synopsis of your book and a link to where we can get it. Please don't just post a link- tell us why we should check it out.

#Promo Prompt!

(Totally optional)

Excited gushing at romance cons, or happy emails in your inbox, or bumping into a fan at the bookstore - what's an interaction with your readers that you think about fondly?


Separate posts promoting your book will be removed as spam. Things that count as "promoting":

  • basic "read my book" posts
  • announcements of Amazon or other sales
  • giveaways
  • asking for beta readers or honest reviews
  • promotion on behalf of friends or family
  • having a brand new account with comments/posts only recommending a certain book or author

But we'd love to see most of those things here in this thread.

Vloggers, bloggers, and podcasters can feel free to post here too. If you have a Discord server invite you'd like to share with RomanceBooks, this is the place to link it. This is also the only permissible place to post if you are discussing your writing or doing research.

Any use of generative AI in your work, whether in the conception, writing, editing, art, audio, marketing, or any other capacity, must be disclosed clearly at all times. Undisclosed AI work may be removed at the moderators' discretion.

Please note - Reddit's filters may remove links it suspects as spam - if your comment is removed because of a link to your website that gets caught in Reddit's filters, please reach out to the mod team and we'd be happy to restore it.

Here's a link to the older self-promotion thread if you'd like to check out what was posted before.

Happy writing!
