About self-promotion

Authors are allowed to promote their books in the comments throughout this subreddit as well, provided two conditions are met:

1. It must relevant to the conversation (i.e. not spam).
2. You must use the "Author" flair and be transparent about the fact that you're recommending your own book. Readers respond well to self-disclosure and may even interact with you more if they know you're the author!

Please be aware that standalone self-promo posts are not allowed. That includes writing research and market research. For more information about Rule 7, click here.
