Last year’s event included nearly 600 titles spread across multiple genres. Let’s make this year’s sale amazing as well! Please share with your author friends! We’d love to include as many authors as possible!
Please note that prices listed on this site will only be valid between Black Friday and Cyber Monday.
Eligibility
We are looking for books with a rating of Mild+ or better according to the My Book Cave rating system. (https://mybookcave.com/mybookratings/meet-the-ratings/) We will not accept books in the horror and erotica genres or with explicit covers or content. No witches as protagonists, please. We reserve the right to reject any book for ANY reason.
All ebooks must be FREE or $0.99 Black Friday through Cyber Monday (you may change the price on Tuesday). All books must be submitted no later than November 26.
If you choose to offer discounted, signed paperbacks, you must take payment yourself and then ship orders within a week of purchase.

What You Need To Do
Step One
Drop your name and email address here (we’ll need to be able to reach you with sale details and updates). By doing so, you agree to let us use your information (author name, email address, links) for the sale and correspondence related to it. Your information will not be shared with third parties. Please note: this does not register you to be able to list books. You must create an account in step 2 below, which takes place on a separate page.
Step Two
Click here to create an account on this site. This will allow you to add your books to our catalog. PLEASE NOTE: if you participated in last year’s book sale, you already have an account on this site. Log in here: https://blackfridaybooksale.com/account/
Step Three
Add your books! Find more detailed instructions here: https://blackfridaybooksale.com/how-to-add-your-books/
Very important: if you are listing multiple books in a series, PLEASE list the series title first. Books are sorted alphabetically on the site, and this is how we keep the series together. Example: The Accidental Cases of Emily Abbott #2: Plan to Fail
In previous years, some authors have not had their series titles in their listing, scattering their series throughout their categories, and we would like to provide as consistent a shopping experience as possible for readers.
PLEASE NOTE: if you participated in last year’s book sale, some of your books may already be listed on your dashboard. THEY WILL NOT BE INCLUDED IN THE SALE unless you review the listing and re-submit it for approval. Please log in and check!
Step Four
Schedule your promo posts. All authors are required to share about the sale on their blog, newsletter, social media, or any combination of the three. You may make your own graphics to use, or use the graphics provided below.

Disclaimers
We reserve the right to reject any book for ANY reason. We are not responsible for your success in this sale, and you are responsible for shipping your physical orders in a timely manner. You agree to let us use your information (author name, email address, links) for the sale and correspondence related to it. Your information will not be shared with third parties.
A note about pricing
If your books are in KDP Select, you may be eligible to run a Kindle Countdown Deal. This will allow you to make 70% royalty on a 99c book for the duration of the sale, rather than the 35% one normally makes on a book priced lower than $2.99.
