Affordable Manuscript Assessments announces the first Paperback in Your Hand contest. The contest opens on January 1st 2009 and closes on March 31st. Any author may enter a work of up to 25,000 words. Full details at http://www.affordablemanuscriptassessments.com
There's a new author promo list at http://groups.yahoo.com/group/mynewbook/
Anyone is welcome, as long as the books are suited to general readers (there's also an adults-only list at http://groups.yahoo.com/group/mynewadultbook/ )
Rules are simple.
Books must be promoted by author, editor or co-author.
Each book can be promoted once a month.
Books and publishers are given a level playing field. Everything, from self-published books to Harry Potter 8 (well...) is given equal value.
The only books excluded are those designed to spread or create hatred, and those for 18+ readership (but see above).
Book covers may be uploaded at the group site.
Contests are welcome.
Come and STRUT!
