Guest Post Guidelines

Welcome to the guest post guidelines for Aryn the Libraryan, a Christian Book Blog.

As one who has been impacted by countless Christian books, both fiction and nonfiction, I know the power of the written word. When a great Christian book is shared between friends, it gets even better.

We welcome guest posts by Christian authors, fellow Christian book bloggers, or anyone whose life has been impacted by a great Christian book.

Please read the below guest post guidelines, and if you’re still interested, use the contact form at the bottom of the page to begin a conversation!

Please note that this post contains affiliate links for your convenience. If you make a purchase through one of the links, I may make a small commission. I only recommend books and resources that I’ve enjoyed personally, or believe that you would like. You can read my full disclosure here. You will also find information on Scripture translations there.

Christian Book Blog: Guest Post Guidelines

I believe that clearly defined expectations reduce misunderstanding and hard feelings. With that in mind, I am happy to consider your guest post, under the following guest post guidelines. We do not pay for guest submissions at this time.

Scripture Translations:

Any Scriptures should be properly noted, and in one of the translations already in use on this site (NIV, HCSB, or NASB).

General Topics Accepted:

To simplify the guest post guidelines, topics I am interested in are anything related to Christian books (fiction and nonfiction) for kids, teens or adults, whether as an escape, or a means of growing through difficult life situations.

This can include Author Q&A, a “Behind the Scenes” look at a book you’ve written, or how a book (or genre) has impacted your life.

The use of subheadings / readable layout is important. I can help with this during editing.

Publicity

Byline: post fully credited to you as the author, with links (key post on your site, social media links). Your photo is welcome. I ask that you do not reuse this content elsewhere, as that would effect the SEO scores for both of us. Feel free to link to the original post though.
