This is starting to get a little out of hand (maybe beyond starting).

We have the "plug your novel" thread which was supposed to contain them. Except now most of the "deals" board is full of authors announcing their books (with or without actual deals attached), and they're creeping into "Writer's Corner" too. Yes, I have a particular offender in mind, but it's really a more generalized thing, and unless the problem is fixed while it's small, it's going to grow until it's not easily fixable.

Perhaps we need to have a "New Books & Discounted Books" board to bring all of them together for the benefit of book shoppers, leaving "Deals" for bookstore-wide sales, device sales, etc,. and "Writers' Corner" for discussion of writing, not announcements of books?

There are obviously a lot of people with books to sell (naturally, since this is a readers' forum, people are going to want to market books here) so give them a place to do it. There's certainly enough traffic for a "New Books & Discounted Books (authors announce your new ebooks, sales and promotions for your ebooks, etc., here)" section to stand on its own, and it would benefit the people looking to buy ebooks, the people looking to buy other things, and the people looking to discuss writing.

Any support for this?
