Email us your idea of what you would like to post and when you would like it to post. We will respond back to you and discuss the details further with you via email. We will also take care of posting the content on to the site, all you would need to do is to email us your content, on a word document is the easiest.
If you would like to submit a book review, it may also be cross-posted on your own blog.
Authors: BEFORE CONTACTING US!
Do not contact us to review your book. This is a site to promote your work in your own words. Submit a guest post, article or feature for how you would like to be represented on HF-Connection. Please note that we are not your advertising space. Please send something exclusive that will not be reprinted elsewhere.
Also, please provide us with the standard summary, a photo of the cover, and that little extra such as a one-of-a-kind commentary about your book. A book giveaway to be hosted here, mailed by you, would be welcomed and much appreciated, but certainly not required! (*Please see below). You may send your guest post on Word format or pasted within the email you send.
Still don't know what to send? We would love to hear about your own muse.. your historical figure or era that intrigues and inspires you! What do you feel is unique about your book? What interesting and intriguing topic did you stumble upon during your research? Tell us about it, in about 500 - 600 words, adding pictures where you would like.
Due to time constraints, we do not have the time to respond to your queries, but if you would simply send us your content as outlined above, we will do our best to get it worked into the posting schedule.

We reserve the right to not post something for any reasons we deem necessary, such as any content that would not be suitable for all audiences.
*We must request that all giveaway prizes be awarded within ten days of our notifying you via email of the winner's information. If there is a problem with this schedule, we will gladly hold your giveaway and guest post until it fits with your ability to award the prizes. The Ten Days stipulation means you mail your prize within ten days of notification, the rest we will rely on the postal system.
