Freebies forum post removal?
I posted a link to my brother's book in the Deals, Freebies, and Resources forum, disclaiming that it was my brother's, and notice that my post was removed. So my questions are:
1) Does posting about a friend or family member's book count as "self promotion"? 2) If a post of mine is removed by a moderator, am I supposed to be notified of it? If my post was against the rules, I was unaware of it; I think it would be good if this was spelled-out a bit better. |

Thank you for your question.
It was felt to be inappropriate, since he his your brother. As well, the author already has a thread to promote his book. I should have sent you a PM, and I apologize for not having done that. Don (Moderator) |

It was also in the wrong thread (a Feb thread, and you posted in March).
