Have you booked a Featured Author or Spotlight? Maybe you're considering doing so.

We have so many enquiries about the information we need, that we decided to make a page solely to cover this.

The process is very simple, once you know what we need. We want to make it as painless as possible for all concerned.

Please click on the appropriate link below for the appropriate information (or scroll down to read it all):

 

 

 

 

Featured Author & Global Spotlight

The very first thing you should do is take a look at past Featured Authors & Global Spotlights.  You'll find them on our archives page.

We are very generous with these pages, and allow you to add pretty much anything you want - within reason.  The Featured Author & Global Spotlight pages are the most popular pages on the entire site, and this is your big chance to showcase yourself.

Here's what we generally include:

  •  Author Photo

  •  Cover Art (book covers) - Up to Four

  •  Links to any reviews

  •  Link/s to your website and/or blog

  •  Link/s to your publisher or direct link to your book/s

  •  Bio about yourself - we suggest you make the most of this, and don't limit it to just one or two paragraphs.  That's fine if it's all you want, but we want you to use this page to your best advantage

  •  Blurb/s about your book/s

  •  Link and details about your newsletter - if you have one

Everything listed above is optional.  We won't include anything you don't want included.  This is YOUR page, not ours, so do with it what you will.

**You are very welcome to write your intro paragraph (or two) for the newsletter provided it's not over-hyped.  If you want to take up this option, please let Cheryl know you will be doing so.

Spotlights

Spotlights are similar to Featured Author slots except they are much shorter.  Our Spotlight page is the second most popular page on the entire website.

Here's what we need for your Spotlight:

  •  Author Photo

  •  Cover Art (book cover - one maximum)

  •  Link/s to your website and/or blog

  •  Link/s to your publisher or direct link to your book/s

  •  Bio about yourself - one or two paragraphs. 

  •  Blurb/s about your book/s

**You are very welcome to write your intro paragraph (or two) for the newsletter provided it's not over-hyped.  If you want to take up this option, please let Cheryl know you will be doing so.

Things you should know

We suggest you send an email checking out the date you want before sending your payment. All our slots fill up very quickly, and we'd hate for you to be disappointed.

Alternatively, send your payment noting the date you want, and we'll add you immediately if it's available.  Otherwise we'll contact you to advise alternative dates.

Sometimes we're booked out six months ahead.  (For instance, the January 2008 slot was booked in June 2007.)  Other times we might have a month or two that is free and readily available.  It usually comes down to author's release dates.

You should send all the required information to us around the 24th-27th of the appropriate month.

This should be sent to our web mistress Cheryl Wright.  Her email address is:

write_cheryl@optusnet.com.au

She will always acknowledge receipt of your information, so if that doesn't happen, please follow up.

Your page will go on the site the first day of the appropriate month.  If there is anything you are not happy with, or need changed, send an email to Cheryl and she'll adjust the page.

We are happy to include erotica, and often do, but pornographic material will not be included under any circumstances.

Excluding the latter, all and any genres or forms of books are accepted.

Now that you know what we will do, here's what we won't do:

  •  We won't go and grab information from your website

  •  We won't search for your cover art

  •  We won't write your bio

  •  We won't write your blurbs

  •  We won't go looking for your direct links

  •  We won't under any circumstances go searching for information of any kind

It is your obligation to provide us with all the information, links, artwork, etc. 

It is our job to put the page together and organise the promotions.
