Thanks for the interest in doing an author interview with us. Interviews help authors get their book in front of readers, and help readers connect with authors. Readers use interviews and book comparisons to help choose to read new books.
We use a three part style interview with Short Author Introduction, Book Connection Recommendation, and (an optional) Get to Know the Author. Only do the third section, if you are interested in a longer personalized style interview post, otherwise the first two sections are sufficient for our Recommendation Posts.
1. Author Introduction:
Name:
Bio Blurb (Relating to your chosen book theme, see below, 150 words max):
Author Website:
Three Social Links:
Please email a jpg picture or a link to a picture you would like used as an author picture.
2. Book Connection Recommendation
For this next section, you’ll pick two books or more (to a maximum of five) to talk about; which fit a collective theme.
The theme should be short (10 words max). Think, what is something that fits both books, that someone could type in a search bar to pull them both up.
This can be highly specific (books with an orphan boy who is chosen to defeat evil) or basic (books with dragons).
You’ll pick one of your books and the rest will be from other authors.
