I hear blog policies are cool.

Therefore, here be the policies! Just click to go straight to whatever or just read through them from top to bottom.

If you cannot find what you are looking for, it’s cool, you can send me a message. Easy peasy. Thanks!

PR, Advertising and Partnerships

I’m open to collaborations to help you drive traffic to your blogs and/or promote your brands as long as they are something I can get behind with. If you want to partner up or advertise, just send me a message!

Book Review Policy

Hello! I am not accepting new book review requests at the moment. I’ve too many books in my TBR pile. Hope you understand.

The kinds of book I read

I gravitate towards fantasy and science fiction and prefer to feature books in those genres, but I also like thrillers, mysteries, gothic novels, and contemporary. I’m open to middle grade, young adult, new adult, and adult books. 

How I review and where I post my reviews

I don’t really have a structure when it comes to reviews. I don’t follow a strict guideline and I don’t do a serious or technical critique of the book. I mostly just talk about my thoughts and feelings about it, what I like and don’t like, and who I think will enjoy it. I don’t use any kind of review rating system on this blog (read more about my feelings on that here). My reviews include cover art, book summary, author photo, bio and links, and purchase links. I usually cross-post my reviews on Goodreads.

Disclosure

I review books for fun and I do not get paid nor do I ask for payment for book reviews on my blog. I obtain my own personal copies of books or I receive copies for review with no obligations. All opinions expressed in reviews are entirely mine. Any review copy sent to me will not be shared, given, or sold.

Guest Post Guidelines

I am generally open to guest contributors, but I lean more towards posts by fiction authors who are promoting their books.

Not to say that I am not open to posts by non-authors! I’d be happy to have fellow writers and bloggers guest on the blog, but I’m holding off on these guest posts for the moment while I try to get back into a nice blogging groove myself. (My blog kind of needs a little work these days.)

Anyway, please feel free to shoot me an email if you want to contribute a guest post. Unfortunately, I can’t offer payment for guest posts, but I will share it on Facebook and Twitter. :)

Giveaway Policy

Giveaways hosted on this blog are either related to a blog tour, a blogger event, a giveaway hop, or a personal giveaway sponsored by me.

Giveaways are open internationally to participants 13 years of age or older unless stated otherwise.

For giveaways that are sponsored by me, winners are selected by Rafflecopter. Winners will be emailed and have 48 hours to respond and claim their prize. If there is no response after 48 hours, then a new winner will be selected.

I reserve the right to disqualify entries that do not comply with the giveaway rules.

For giveaways related to a blog tour or blogger event, the giveaway sponsors will be responsible for verifying entries and selecting the winners. Information about this is usually included in the giveaway post.

Personal information (name, email address, shipping address, etc.) will be kept confidential and will not be shared. See my Privacy Policy for more details on how your data is protected.

I will not be responsible for prizes that are lost or damaged in the mail.

Disclosure

This blog is the property of White Sky Project and the author. Photos and content are sole property of the author unless otherwise indicated. Photos and content that are not owned by me are credited as such. 

You may use part of a post or a photo by me, but please credit them properly — link back to the specific post. (Send me an email when your post is up! I’d love to see it.)

If I have shared an image or part of a post that is credited to someone else and you wish to use it, please credit the original source or owner and make sure to follow their own terms of use. There is no need to credit this blog if that’s the case.

Sometimes I feature images that are from Her Creative Studio, Styled Stock Society, and Death to Stock. These are images that have been made free to their newsletter subscribers. (If you’re looking for beautiful stock photography, you should check them out!)

Sometimes I do sponsored posts and, when I do, I indicate that it is a sponsored post. Also, whatever compensation I may receive will never influence my opinion on the product or post. I only choose products, brands or topics that I can truly get behind with.

I do not get paid nor do I ask for payment for book reviews or book features on my blog. I get my own copies of the books or I am provided a review copy by the author, their representative or their publicist in exchange for an honest review. Opinions expressed in reviews are all mine.

Comments on posts are subject to approval. Honest views and opinions are welcome, unless they are aimed to humiliate, degrade or abuse. I aim to keep discussions constructive and healthy.
