My story begins a couple of months ago, when I decided to do a \"boost\" or Facebook ad campaign to promote one of my Olivia Outlaw Books. \u00a0I did the post, clicked to boost it, it started boosting and then - the boost was rejected.<\/p>\n<p>A few days ago, I decided to try again, because I've run FB ads before and found them a great way to promote books for a reasonable cost. \u00a0Again, it got rejected and this time I got messages about \"explicit content\" and violating FB ad policies.<\/p>\n<p>Seriously?<\/p>\n<p>Well, okay, perhaps Facebook has hangups about Male\/Male Romance and I was trying to publicize one of my Olivia Outlaw books. \u00a0So, I tried again, with three - count 'em THREE- of the books from my Mary Anne Graham \"Forever\" series. \u00a0Nada. The same result. \u00a0I beat my head against the brick wall, and grabbed my computer guy hubby and slammed his face against it for a while. \u00a0More nada and managed to royally perturb computer guy hubby who recalled anew his wife's technical stupidity.<\/p>\n<p>While hubby cooked breakfast - yum- I had a \"light bulb\" moment. \u00a0Maybe I needed to do a full reboot. \u00a0After all, my original Facebook was created before FB had some of the tools to help authors create pages. \u00a0So, I slogged off to create an AUTHOR page. \u00a0Added each book series to PHOTOS and plan to give each book\/series its own FB page. \u00a0(It'll take a while, people, I'm on the last book in my Seducing the Guardian Series and hope to publish soon).<\/p>\n<p>For now, though, I have a brand new author page and am running a promo of my \"shop now\" button which connects to my list of books on this blog. \u00a0If you've wandered over here from that shop now button\/promo - HI! \u00a0*waves*<\/p>\n<p>Be sure to check out the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/GrahamOutlawRomance\/?skip_nax_wizard=true\" target=\"_blank\">new FB page<\/a> and give it a like while you're there!!<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>My original Facebook page will be fading away soon.... and I have a brand new Facebook page to share. \u00a0But first, of course, I have a story.
