Weekly “Sell Me Your Book” Thread
Welcome to this week’s community challenge!
Imagine we’ve just met in a bookstore. You have 30 seconds to convince me to read your book.
Your comment should include:
Title
Genre
A pitch in 50 words or fewer
One reason readers will love it
Bonus challenge: Don’t mention the plot twist. Make us need to find out.
Readers:
Browse the comments and reply to any book that catches your attention. Tell the author what hooked you or ask a question!
Authors:
Don’t just drop your pitch and disappear. Read a few others and leave some encouragement. The best communities are built through conversation.
Happy reading—and happy writing!
