Author link in bio: common questions
What should an author put in their link in bio?
Lead with the thing you most want a new reader to do — for most authors that is joining the newsletter. Then your newest book, your author page on Amazon or Apple Books, Goodreads, and a way to support you.
Which book and newsletter links are supported?

Amazon (including amazon.co.uk, .ca and .com.au), Apple Books, Goodreads, Bookshop.org, Barnes & Noble, Kobo, Wattpad, Books2Read, Substack, beehiiv, Kit, Medium, Patreon, Ko-fi and Gumroad are on it. Your own author website can be linked with Pro (US$4/month).
