Your story deserves to be discovered.

Welcome to the Indie Author Spotlight at Trending After Dark, a place where independent authors and their stories get a chance to shine.

Whether you write dark romance, paranormal fiction, fantasy, gothic tales, thrillers, or stories that refuse to fit neatly into one genre, we want to hear from you.

Each month, we aim to spotlight two independent authors, introducing readers to their books, their writing journeys, and the personalities behind the pages.

And the best part? It’s completely free.

We know how difficult it can be to get your work noticed when you’re an independent author. This is our way of supporting fellow storytellers and helping readers discover books they might otherwise miss.

Before you apply:

  • Please submit a book you own or are authorized to promote.
  • Be sure your contact email and book links are accurate.
  • Applications are reviewed for consideration. A feature is not guaranteed.
  • If selected, we’ll contact you by email.

Ready to introduce yourself and your book? Fill out the application below.

We can’t wait to discover what you’ve been writing.
