Can you promote here?
Promotion is allowed only with moderator permission (or inside designated threads). A short, honest modmail before posting costs two minutes and functions as a safe-conduct pass; skipping it is the most common avoidable removal.
From the rules · If you plan to promote a product or community, ask the mods first — several posters said they checked with moderators before sharing.
Links
The rules clearly allow links. A plain-text mention still often outperforms a URL from a young account.
What this community rewards
Dominant post formats: question, discussion, guide
Titles are short, first-person, and either a direct question (How/Help/Looking for advice) or a brief announcement (I created..., I launched...). Posts are conversational, practical, and supportive; typical post body is a few paragraphs with examples or resources. Upvotes reward actionable advice, resources (spreadsheets, lists), and honest writing/publishing experiences. Avoid unannounced product pitches — ask mods first.
Arriving in the local format matters: cross-posting the same text everywhere reads as tourist instantly. The wider method is in the Reddit playbook.
Classified mechanically from the community's published rules and recent top posts, last checked October 2026. Rules change and moderators have the final say: verify at r/romanceauthors's rules page before posting anything that matters.
Thread Otter checks this before every send
These profiles power the product: promo-banned communities never receive a promotional draft, drafts arrive in the local format, and a fact-check gate plus human pacing protect the account doing the talking.
