Canonical: https://scheduleforyou.com/post-ideas/authors/monday

- **Education:** The one mistake readers make before coming to a author, and the fix.
- **Education:** "Author answers": pick the question you got three times this week and answer it in five lines.
- **Education:** A carousel: 5 things to know before choosing books. One per slide, last slide is your CTA.
- **Education:** Myth vs. fact about books, as a two-image post.
- **Story:** Why you started the author: three sentences, one photo from the early days.
- **Story:** A hard week and what you learned from it. Keep it to five lines.
- **Story:** The books you are proudest of this year and why.
- **Process:** Step-by-step: what happens when a new reader books books. Carousel, 5 slides.
- **Process:** What a typical day looks like for the author, as a timeline post.
- **Behind the scenes:** Show the desk before opening: one photo, one line about what gets set up first.
- **Behind the scenes:** Introduce one person on the team: name, role, the question readers ask them most.
- **Behind the scenes:** A 15-second video of the most satisfying part of the job, no voiceover, captions on.
- **Proof:** Post a reader review. Caption: what the readers asked for, what you did, one sentence from them.
- **Proof:** Screenshot a review (with permission) and reply to it publicly in the caption.
- **Proof:** One number from last month (books delivered, readers served) and what it took.
