Yes, it’s a little too soon, but I wanted to offer all of you wonderful writers an opportunity to promote yourselves here in the next few months. π
AUTHOR PROMOTION in two ways:
1.Family Histories
I’m hoping to do a holiday edition of Family Histories. Those of you who participated in the past are welcome to submit another piece relating to history and/or family in some way. Don’t be shy either. The more the merrier when it comes to promoting our fellow writers! For those who didn’t submit in the past, the basic “rules” are that there are no rules (okay, do I need to say no monster porn?). Whatever comes to mind when you put the words FAMILY and HISTORY together (while keeping holidays in mind as well).
This is a good place to promote any books you may have written (or are in the process of writing) and your blog writing too.
I’ll accept work up until December 15th. (we can talk about exceptions if you’re interested).
2. Author Interviews
If you have written books (or are writing a book) that in some way involves history (historical fiction, family history, human history, poetry about history, the history of your blind date last week — you get the point), then I’d love to feature you here!
I’m not going to reinvent the wheel on this one so the deal is that you pick 5-10 questions on this excellent LIST to answer at your convenience. Send me your answers,Β any promotional material you want to share, and links to social media.
This is an open invitation with no deadlines, but I will work with you if you have a special release date or something.
***BTW, I have a few books out and certainly wouldn’t turn down any interviews π
Please share the love on this because it’s so fun to see what others are up to!

A great initiative Adrienne. You make me realize that there may be a way around the lack of distribution tied to self-publishing. Maybe it is just what you do: share platforms between writers to increase coverage. My compliments.
Let me see whether I have something suitable and will let you know.
(Is it snowing that hard already in your neck of the woods? Great pic BTW)
Take care

Well, thank you. π I will do my best. Though the past year and a half has affected my writing quite a bit, I did “spin” a story last week. π
I’ll get back to you.
Have a lovely week.

Hi Adrienne, as usual, time has run out. Would you be interested in my submitting “An unexpected trip”? Not sure whether this qualifies as a family story? If you haven’t read it, (Can’t remember whether you did) here’s the link:

Be good.
