Author Spotlight FAQ
Who is the Author Spotlight for?
Independent authors, debut novelists, ministry writers, and established voices alike. If you have a message and a finished book, we want to hear from you.
Do you only feature certain genres?
No. We've featured fiction, memoir, theology, leadership, poetry, and children's authors. The criterion is depth of message, not genre.
How long does the feature stay live?
Indefinitely. Once published, your Author Spotlight remains permanently archived on our site and shared across our distribution channels.
Can I see a draft before publication?
Yes. Every author receives the full draft for review and approval. Nothing publishes without your explicit sign-off.
Is there a cost?
We offer both complimentary and sponsored spotlight tiers. Contact us and we'll send the current options based on your needs and timeline.
