101 best Facebook groups for children’s book authors and readers


The hardest part of self-publishing your book is marketing and finding an audience. Here are the best Facebook groups for authors.

If you’ve already self-published a book, then you are no doubt aware that writing the text and sourcing the images is the easy part – making readers aware of your book’s existence is where the hard work begins. There are plenty of places around the internet where you can begin posting about your book and trying to gain some traction and notice. Facebook groups are active, busy and public places to talk about your book and discuss the writing process with your peers. Below you will find some recommendations on how to interact with these groups, and also a comprehensive list of all the Facebook groups for writers we recommend checking out. Don't forget to like us while on Facebook, too.

Recommended protocol in Facebook groups:

  1. First things first; introduce yourself. Not only does this allow the group to welcome you, but can actually act as a useful way to introduce your existing books without the need to spam the board.
  2. Facebook groups are not – at least in theory – posting boards. They are communities. If you really want to make an impact, especially if you want to make a long-standing one, then you need to be part of that community. Like posts, comment, reply and be active. It sounds easy, but it requires dedication.
  3. If you sign up for a number of groups, you may want to be more choosy about which ones can send you notifications. You can toggle this through a menu in the top right of Facebook.
  4. Make sure you read the About Us section of any Facebook group as they all have small peculiarities and if you don’t follow them you will get yourself blacklisted in a hurry. If you have any questions or want to get “on-side” with the moderators, send them a message.
  5. No matter how tempting it is, do not spam a group with multiple links to your own blog or do your own book sale. Spread them out evenly, and try and contribute to other members’ posts in the interim.
  6. Be aware that most groups are for genres of all shapes and sizes and adult literature can take precedence over children's books.
  7. Don't just share your own work; if you find some a useful resource, or book, or guide, then share it to the community. For example, you could start by sharing this post #wink#
