How you can help me find my next reader

Dear reader,

Thanks for your interest in growing the audience for The Artifex and the Muse. In a world full of great books and limited attention spans, indie authors need all the help we can get to connect with readers who might enjoy our work. If you’re interested in spreading the word, here are a few different ways you can help.

  • Reviews: Join my reader review team on BookSirens for Book One, Two, Three, and/or the full four-book series. In exchange for your honest public review on Amazon, Goodreads, and/or Bookbub, you’ll receive a free review copy of any or all of the series ebooks in ePub format.

  • Social media: Share your personal recommendation or experience reading the series on your social media. Consider using my tags #theartifexandthemuse and #thevoiceinall, and @-mention me. (I’m @audreyauden on Instagram and X, and I’m @lovethatbook on TikTok).

  • Book clubs: Suggest one or more books in the series to your book club. The reading club guides included at the end of each book’s overview page here on my website (Books One, Two, Three, and Four) can serve as a starting point for discussion. I also love talking with readers about their experience with the story. If you’d like me to join your book club discussion by video call for author Q&A, I’d love to! Just drop me a line to schedule.

  • Gifts: Gift a copy to a bookworm in your life. Contact me if you’d like to gift a signed copy.

  • Book tours: Participate in one of my social media book tours on Instagram or TikTok, as an influencer or a re-poster. Drop me a line to let me know you’re interested, and I’ll add you to my contact list for the next tour.

  • … Or share your own promotion suggestions directly with me. Independent publishing is a fast-evolving space, so every new book launch is a new experiment, and I’m open to trying new things.

Thanks in advance for your help!
