Reviews are free AND they are a gift to authors that can keep on giving (i.e., exposure, marketing, algo boosts, etc.)
Please, give the gift of reviews to your authors this holiday season. It really can make a difference!

A reminder that I'm really keen to find a writer of fantasy working in French whose work I can translate into English - there are specific journals looking for this, and I would love to collaborate

Re indie marketing scams: if someone is asking you if they can review your book, they want money for it
if they really loved it, they'd be posting about it without your permission

Does anyone here read new speculative fiction originally written in French? I have a hankering to work on my French, and maybe also play at translating!

Some books I've read recently and enjoyed:
Delicious Hunger on @tiltedaxispress.bsky.social
Empire of the Summer Moon by SC Gwynne
And a recommendation for Stargazey Pie @victoriagoddard.bsky.social which was a neat little mystery of manners on top of an elegant piece of fantasy world building

Some observations about "marketing" as practiced by one novice.
I've tried bookbub ads, social media engagement both indirect (like this) and more direct (links and offers in Discord)
I reckon I make a pretty engaging podcast guest
I'm relatively widely published for a self-publishing novelist
