Frequently Asked Question
Why was this site published?
Every year, thousands of quality books are published. Many of those books
are published by small presses or self-published by the authors.
Relatively unknown authors have difficulty reaching the market. This site
is means for former service members who have published to band together and
reach a larger audience.
Is this a commercial site?
Yes. It is support through the sale of your books and advertising.
However, it is the property of an author who served.
Who is eligible to be listed as an author?
Anyone who served in the United States Military and was honorably discharged.
Is there a charge for an author to be listed?
There is no charge.
How do I get listed?
Send an email to
editor@military-writers.com. At minimum, include your branch, rank,
theater of service (if applicable) and the name of your book(s).
Additionally, you may submit any biographical information or book description;
and, a photograph of you. Please submit the photograph in jpg or gif
format, don't worry about the size we will resize as appropriate. Limit
your bio or book information to 1000 words. We reserve to right to edit
and republish the biographical and book information you provide. It may
become the content of press releases, blog entries, articles, etc.
Why should I keep my contact information updated
with the website?
This website has a sister site at
Police
Officer Writers. As that site becomes more popular there are several
press inquires per week. Usually, they are seeking either contact
information on a particular author, or a subject matter expert in that area.
While your contact information will never be divulged to a third party,
including the press, we often facilitate contact between interested press and
authors. We simply send you an email or call you on the telephone and give
you the press persons information. Hopefully, you'll not only market your
book, but our site!

It depends on the workload.
