I have a question ... anyone can answer.
Is it considered "advertising" if I give people a chance to get their very own signed book - the book that my brother wrote? He's not got any copies of it yet but he's on his way, just a few more steps to take.
I didn't want to get into trouble for posting about his book. I don't know if it's advertising or not. I read the TOS but I don't understand some parts of it. Please forgive me.

It probably would be better if you didn't, you can't sell his books here. Even if you were offering them for free, there is still the shipping costs and giving each other physical addresses to ship things to.
You can certainly mention the name of your brothers book and if anyone wants to run out and buy one, that would be their business.

Come to think of it, it isn't a good idea to tell others about just yet. He's got a website of his very own too.. My brother once told me to tell everyone I know about his new book.
It's called Resurection Day. I'd say it's a survival/horror/thriller book. My brother was going to have the book availiable on amazon dot com. and a few other places I don't remember what al he said.
Thank you, Sarah L., for helping me decide to do the right thing. I appreciate your advice. :)
