Can you promote in r/janeausten?
For all things Jane Austen: her novels, short stories, adaptations, etc.
The short answer
Be a regular, on-topic contributor; disclose your affiliation, keep posts high-quality and clearly Austen-related, follow flair rules, and limit promotion to infrequent (≤ once/month) or to appropriate threads.
What works here
- Sharing a high-quality Austen-related project once per month
- Mentioning your platform/account sparingly and transparently
- Participating in normal discussion before promoting
What gets posts removed
- Frequent or low-quality promotional posts
- Posting merchandise or spam-like content
- Posting without required flair or community engagement
