While English is widely spoken in many places, the reality is that less than 20% of the world's population speaks English. That means there's more than 80% of people who won't be able to read the books you're publishing if you don't translate them. The math is simple: a bigger audience equals more potential readers. Not only that, but everyone should have the opportunity to read, and to find and purchase books they need or enjoy.

A 2025 nominee for Book Blogger's Novel of the Year Award for A Lonely Broadcast: Book One, author Kel Byron also enjoys tabletop games, cooking spicy food, 80's goth music, and volunteering at cat rescues.

Romance and Romantasy have become cultural powerhouses, captivating millions of readers and redefining the modern book scene. With bestsellers topping the charts, and viral recommendations sweeping across social media, the demand for deeper emotional and immersive stories is at an all-time high. 

When you're creating your marketing strategy and thinking of all the ways in which you can promote your book, it's likely that Pinterest isn't at the top of your list. It's been around for years, it's not known for the bells and whistles that some platforms offer, and it's been primarily known as the the home of crafts and DIY projects.
