6. Pulpwood Queen and Timber Guy Children’s Book Club
Years ago, Kathy started the Splinters and the Pinecones–two book clubs for kids that were a break off of the Pulpwood Queen and Timber Guy Book Club. Kathy started out in the book world as a Children’s Book Store manager, so children’s books have always had a special place in her heart.
But life happened and owning the beauty shop, the bookstore, running the Pulpwood Queens, and the children’s book club was too much to do on her own.
Sadly, she had to give some things up.
Now that she has a new executive director, she’s a grandmother of a little book lover, and so many Pulpwood Queen and Timber Guy members have become grandparents themselves–we think it’s time to start again! As authors, you need a place to promote your work–and readers need a place to find you.
So it’s my pleasure to introduce Reading With Queen Mama Kat!
Just like the author members of the original PQ/TG, when you join you will be featured in our newsletter, listed in our new section (New Children’s Authors), promoted on our Reading With Queen Mama Kat Facebook Page–we’ll have some fun with this! – and your books will be considered for the new Pulpwood Queen and Timber Guy Children’s Book Club reading list.
You will be eligible to purchase low-cost advertising in our Reading Nation Magazine (which will start a new children’s book section) and purchase banners to advertise your work on the website and newsletter.
This is just the start–once we get going, we’ll think of other ways to get you seen and your books read.
Children’s Book Authors – welcome to The International Pulpwood Queen and Timber Guy Book Club! Author membership for Children’s Book authors and/or Illustrators is the same – a $50 annual fee.
You DO NOT have to pay two memberships.
If you’re already an author member and you have a children’s book you want featured, contact Kathy at thepulpwoodqueen@gmail.com.
Now let’s have some fun!
7. The Cool Kat’s Club – Reading With The Pulpwood Queens and Timber Guys
We can’t leave out our middle-grade to young adult authors and readers!
So – we will have another Facebook Group – The Cool Kat’s Club – Reading With The Pulpwood Queens and Timber Guys – to showcase our works from our middle-grade to young adult author’s books too. We’ll be searching for a few tween to teenage readers to help us moderate the page and keep it fun.
Here’s the link to The Cool Kat’s Club https://www.facebook.com/groups/thecoolkatsclub
And the link to Reading With Queen Mama Kat https://www.facebook.com/groups/readingwithqueenmamakat
Pulpwood Queen and Timber Guy Authors – if you have a middle-grade to YA novel that you would like to promote on the new Facebook page, email Mandy at mandy.pulpwoodqueen@gmail.com
8) New Pulpwood Queen’s Book Club Advertising Announcement
We have received interest from new author members about advertising opportunities with the book club. After much discussion and consideration, we have decided to offer a few ways for new author members to do just that. We have a new page on the website explaining exactly what those opportunities are. If you are interested in doing some promotions for your projects, just visit our advertising page on the website and/or click the link below.
