Online Book Readings

About Online Readings on CJLeger.com

CJLeger.com accepts online readings of book selections. Usually, we accept readings of books submitted by authors, agents, publishers or publicists, which have been accepted for review or features by our editorial staff, however, on occasion  we may accept an individual online reading request if we feel the book would appeal to our readers.

Participating in Online Readings is easy and serves as a good way to get exposure for your book. If selected for an online reading and you wish to participate, we will send you over a short introduction script that reads for about 15-60 seconds, and you can take it from there reading whatever selection of the book you choose. 

All you have to do is record yourself reading the selection in a quiet, ambient location. Send us over your recording, and we will put it together, uploaded it to our YouTube channel and publish it on the site. 

Why Do Online Readings?

Online readings are a great way to get exposure for your books and for prospective readers to get to know the author a bit better. Offering a selection of your book for online reading will get readers more interested in your book’s synopsis and will gear more followers and interest in your published work.
