Romance Alley

This website is to promote authors, benefit readers, and make it a fun place to enjoy. Romance Alley is for authors to promote their books, benefit from the writing tips published authors are offering, and for readers to enjoy contests, information about romance novels, and the free reads.

The following are the free promotion services for authors: Contact me for your promo requests.

Contests- You will provide the information of your contest, and your book cover. All will be linked to your contact page for readers to give the answers. You will be responsible for sending the prizes for your readers. I will spend time and effort to make it look nice and attractive. Please do not fail in sending the prizes to the readers. After the contest ends the content will be removed.

Author to Author Tips- This is one of the great opportunities I'm offering you as an author to promote your book. This is fantastic for all authors published and unpublished to benefit from. It's like small advice from your tutor, without actually having one. As an author you can write about anything from grammar to writing tips. You will be asked to give a short excerpt from any of your work about the article you are writing about. A book cover and a link to your website will be displayed on RA blog. Don't forget that authors are readers as well.

Free reads- Is there a better way to promote you and your books than having a free read for readers. (Your website will be linked to drive readers to your site for more of your novels.)

Get To Know The Book- This is another way to promote your book, but in a more creative way. You will write something about your story, maybe about one of the characters, or how you got the idea of the story, and provide a short excerpt about the topic you are writing about in your story, or maybe a scene you liked so much. Your book cover will be linked to your website as well. This will be up on RA blog. My purpose of the creative way of introducing you to the readers is to engage them into your story, and feel you as an author, maybe by telling the reader something special in the book; it will intrigue them to buy it. There will be a line limit, I will discuss with the author. A link for your book trailer is free on my blog.

Free services to help authors:

Seeking Critique Partners- This is where authors are looking for a critique partners. Names of the authors seeking CP will be linked to their website contact page.
Reviews- This is a free service for authors will come to my site soon.
