Parameters still being tweaked.
It's ok to promote your own book if it is a book that has been banned etc WITHIN REASON. If the feed flooded with your self-promo (or promo of your friend's book etc), I will remove you from the Approved User list. Thanks for understanding. I also realize not everyone on the Approved List may have seen these guidelines, so I'll remove anyone who is using the hashtags for topics other than what is feed is intended for (see "Goals" earlier in this post) -- I'm happy to add them back once they've had a chance to read the guidelines.
To be added to the Approved List, please reply to the pinned post in this feed saying that you agree with the guidelines: to use #IReadBannedBooks and related hashtags for posts directly related to raising awareness about the issue of book banning and censorship, promoting books that have been challenged or banned, and fostering a community of individuals who support the freedom to read and access diverse literature. If you post about a specific book (whether it's yours or someone else's), you also agree to be reasonable about how often you post; I will remove users from the Approved List if it comes to my attention that anyone is spamming the feed. Thanks for understanding.
