Interested in submitting content to our blog? Bookmasters invites our publishing partners to post a guest post on our blogs. Showcase your writing skills and provide helpful information to your fellow writers and publishers.
What type of content do you accept?
Bookmasters will accept anything that is useful to our readers. We are particularly interested in publishing, industry news, personal experiences in writing and publishing, and marketing. Our readers are generally writers and publishers.
We may also, at times, send out requests for guest posts on topics to a network of our publishing partners who have expressed interest in guest blogging. If you are interested in joining this network, please email a request to blog@bookmasters.com.
We will allow links in your articles if they are relevant to the topic you are writing about. We ask that you include proper attribution. Linking to your blog or website is okay only if relevant to the topic. You may link to your own site or sites to buy your book in your byline (see Post Author below).
We have no minimum length requirement, but prefer that posts be at least 200 words. Remember that longer posts may be daunting. Longer posts may be broken up by subheadings.
Post Author
We want to help promote you as the author of your article, and so we provide you the opportunity to include a byline. Post author may include an author bio up to 150 words and up to three links. You may also include an image. All links in your byline must relate to the book industry or your topic. We recommend that at least one of the links should lead to a page where readers can learn more about you and how to buy your book(s). For our distribution partners, we certainly recommend a link to your atlasbooks.com page.
Guest bloggers may link to their own content within the post when applicable, but this is subject to review.
By submitting your post(s), you acknowledge that your post(s) belong to Bookmasters and will be credited to the author. Also, by submission, you allow BookMasters to share your comments publically
Review
Bookmasters reserves the right to review and edit for grammar. We regularly edit posts by our contributors and guest bloggers. We will not rewrite your article, but may make grammatical changes, minor edits, title changes, photo changes, and other changes. If a post needs improvement, we will return it to you with suggestions. Please do not be offended if we suggest changes.
No payment will be involved for guest blog content.
Bookmasters reserves the right to make links within an author’s text to other posts in the Bookmasters network (including company websites and blogs).
Publishing of the blog post will be done at the discretion of Bookmasters. After a post is approved, it may be several days before it is actually published.
Bookmasters reserves the right to decline publishing any post or to remove a post after it has been published.
Images
Images are great for garnering attention and will be accepted. They should be low-res .jpeg files. You must have permission to use an image. Proper attribution is required. If you do not submit an image, Bookmasters may include one with your post. You may also include an image of yourself and your book.

This looks like an excellent opportunity for writers and publishers to link up with a larger community, to share what they know, and for us all to learn about each other’s work. I regularly bookmark posts from blogs, and look forward to following, and adding to, the ones here.
Thanks, BookMasters, for making this possible!
Best Wishes,

I am a published author and know how difficult it is to advertise and promote your own book. This looks like a great opportunity to not only promote, but learn techniques from other authors that may help in the promotion and selling process.
