✨Authors, looking for promotion?✨
Believe it or not, when she’s not helping authors polish their manuscripts with developmental edits or designing gorgeous covers, Rachel runs three promotion sites to help authors get in front of their target audience. She established Boxed Romance Bargains in 2016, took over Steamy Book Bargains in 2018 and launched Steamy Lounge at the end of 2022. Let’s just say, in her decade of industry experience, she’s learned a little bit about what authors need.
Being an indie author is already tough enough, let us help with all the other stuff that’s keeping you from writing. Whether that means helping you polish your manuscript, pulling quotes and teasers to hook new readers, promoting your books, or promoting you, we’re here to help every step of the way. Before and after you hit publish. Check out our current promotion opportunities below, curated with authors in mind to help them meet new readers.
Spotlight Opportunities
