Authors: Promotion for You and Giving Back, too

Authors. Once or twice a year, I borrow some space on the blog to talk about the Reading Tub® and our charitable work. As regular readers know, we are a 100% volunteer 501(c)(3). While our work is “free,” the costs of getting reading materials to at-risk readers and underwriting our literacy resources, is not.

Rather than create grand events that benefit just us, we have opted for opportunities that offer a Win-Win to everyone. Our Author Showcase is just that kind of opportunity.

Through our website, blog, and other social media platforms we can help authors of children’s and young adult books increase the discoverability of their work. In return, they can help us get reading material to at-risk readers and their families. Our Author Showcase has three levels of promotion for authors to choose from.

If you have published a book for kids ages 0 to 13, then we’d love the chance to share YOUR story with our registered readers and Web site visitors. 

Promoting Children’s Authors 

Being part of the Reading Tub Author Showcase requires a financial contribution. The good news is that 100% of your contribution goes directly to our literacy work, not someone’s salary or vacation! Donations go to helping at-risk readers: children who have no reading material at home, students who are failing reading benchmarks for their grade level, and libraries at Title I schools.

Our volunteers invest a minimum of 25 hours into helping authors promote their book. In addition to reading and reviewing your book, we collect other research: links to videos or book trailers, reviews on other sites, interviews, biographical information, your social media links, etc.
