Wouldn't it be great if your book's cover, along with an easy way to order your book from Amazon, could be delivered directly to the email in-box of thousands of interested readers and other writers?

- Your book is featured exclusively in a blog posting on our Self-Publishing News blog as the featured Amazon Book-of-the-Week
- Over 37,000 readers and writers who subscribe will receive your Amazon-branded Featured Book-of-the-Week email directly into their in-box, along with a convenient way to order your book directly from Amazon.
- Your blog post is broadcast to our social community on Facebook and X (formerly Twitter), resulting in even more exposure for your book.
Both the email and blog post feature your book cover image, plus a button linked to your book's Amazon sales page, just like you see in the example above. This makes it extremely easy for readers to purchase your book and write reviews.
Yes, Amazon offers the ability to send emails like this manually, and you should certainly do that for your own targeted list of friends and family, too. But with this option, you get thousands of email recipients, plus exposure on our three most popular social media channels (our blog, our Facebook page and our X (formerly Twitter) account). You will receive a free tip sheet upon purchase with helpful tips on how to get the most out of your Amazon Featured Book-of-the-Week exposure.
Spots will fill up fast, so reserve your spot as soon as possible.
Reviews of your book greatly enhance this option so make sure to have at least one review on Amazon.
Frequently Asked Questions
When will my book be featured?
Books are featured on a first come, first served basis. This is a very popular option as authors love having their book featured on our Self-Publishing News blog (http://selfpublishingnews.com) a few months after publication. This delay gives you time to get reviews for your book—because you will get better results with this service if your book has several good reviews. Reviews sell books and people rarely buy books will no reviews.
Can Outskirts Press post a review for me on Amazon? How do I post my Readers Favorite or Blue Ink review on Amazon.
You can add positive reviews to your book's Amazon sales page through your Author Central account at authorcentral.amazon.com or you can have Outskirts Press optimize your Amazon listing for you as part of our popular Amazon Launch Bundle. The reviews you post yourself through Author Central won't go into the "Review" section, they'll go somewhere better—into the Description section, which is higher up on your sales page and therefore more visible to browsers.
Will my book be featured on Amazon?
Your book will be featured on the Self-Publishing News Blog, the Outskirts Press Facebook Page, the Outskirts Press X (formerly Twitter) account, and emailed directly to approximately 37,000 readers and writers. Each feature email and posting contains direct links to Amazon so buyers can easily purchase your book.

Lawrence N. Weston
author of Avoiding Self Imposed Adversities
From the beginning, and throughout the process of publishing my first book, I felt that I was in the hands of a pro. Dana always took the time to answer my questions in detail and swiftly, and if she didn't have 100% confidence, she researched the question and got back to me. I was very pleased with her and I am also thankful that I was paired with her as an Author Rep.

Bridget, as well as the entire Outskirts Press team working with me, are exceptional. They held my hand through the entire process in addition to providing me with welcomed support and encouragement. I am looking forward to our next project together. I have recommended Outskirts Press to several freelance authors in my area. Thank you for making a potentially hectic journey so enjoyable and so satisfying.

I was very happy with my author rep's responses to me. She did a superb job of answering my questions and helping me through the editing process. She was always available when I needed her. I'm delighted with the outcome--my book looks good and it's selling! Thank you.

A great experience with Outskirts Press. I learned a lot in this process. I will do it all over again. Thank you so much.
Esther A. Ota
author of Children: My Heritage - A Testimony
The one-on-one with Lisa was great. Especially the phone call picking out styles, font, cover template etc. She even got a vote on the color. I so wanted to have my daughter's painting as the art work on the cover and she gave me a way to do that. Her guidance helped turn my dream into a reality and sometimes it is still hard to believe until I look at my book. Thank you.

author of The Art of Being a School Counselor
Outskirts Press has perfected the art of self-publishing. Their process is simple and seamless with everything happening in a timely manner, giving authors complete control over how their book will appear inside and out. And the people there are fantastic. They’re friendly, knowledgeable, courteous, patient and quick to reply to emails. What more can an author ask?
Needless to say, I’ve found a home here at Outskirts Press.

Outskirts Press changed my life for the better. They turned my adoption memoir into a book that is not only beautiful to look at, it is pleasurable to read, easy to purchase online, and in less than a month already has had a profound impact on many people.
