These are the rules for the Romantic Observer’s Promotion site. Romantic Observer’s other sites have their own rules. 

Please treat others as you would like to be treated.

You can be a Promo Expert, reaching readers who will BUY your work. Read on and find out how.   

Posts should be promotion only of 1000 words or less with the author’s name, author web site address (if you have one), the book title, the link to buy the book, the publisher’s name, the ISBN number (if you have one).

You may include a blurb about the book, short quotes from reviews, and pre-release quotes from other authors about the book(the easiest way is to paste it into our page). No other promotion is permitted. If in doubt ASK! You may promo each book only once. See the How To page for specifics.

Remember, all post are moderated and may take up to 24 hours to appear. Please don’t waste your time or ours by trying to skirt the rules

Some subject matter is forbidden: 

Pedophilia. That is, sex between adults and underage characters.
Necrophilia. Undead (vampires etc.) doesn’t count.
Bestiality. Sentient shifters, aliens and paranormal creatures are OK.
Scat or golden showers.
Rape or incest
(as defined by the culture in which the story occurs) calculated to arouse the reader.  Villains may commit rape or incest to demonstrate malicious intent, but it should occur offstage or in a manner that is not arousing.  Rape or incest can have occurred in a character’s past, but the hero or heroine should never perpetrate rape or incest during the scope of the story.
Snuff.
