I always say to check the link in my bio. I’m told that some platforms disadvantage your post if it contains an external link. I see what you mean about making it easy for readers to buy your books though.
If you’re ever looking for a “diet-dark” romance with steamy scenes, I have two in a series plus a stand alone in the same universe. Free on kindle unlimited!!! https://a.co/d/8hll9F9
I'm inspired: On Amazon Canada (Kindle only, they've linked my ebook to another author's paperback) Kirkus review in description https://www.amazon.ca/dp/B0051P0OWI/

I have four in a series of five published wide, but tend to start off with my introductory novella. https://www.mjv.com - as easy as I can get. Urban fantasy sci-fi adventure.
An epic fantasy/military book focused on a platoon of Elves, Dwarves, and Humans combining sword and magic to fight - so they think - an evil race of Druids wielding powerful magic.
The Rede of the Rook: Fantasy Stories
A king none has seen, a doomed messenger, a feud in tattoos, wars, waterfalls, werewolves and puppets. https://mybook.to/redeoftherook
I don't do Amazon because they take most of the profits and they didn't write a single word. My book is published by this fabulous Indie. https://www.razurcuts.com/shop/stayin-alive
It would be rude not to tell you about one of my books. I have a dark romantic suspense trilogy, and to tempt you further, the first book, Risk, is free!
I'm up in the White Mountains now. I'm envious of your planned bike adventures. I've wanted to get myself a bike for quite some time. Just can't seem to find the time or money at the moment.
It's about a depressed person struggling through the sudden alien invasion that opened up portals all across the world! This is the story of Blood, "Lifeless".
Enjoy~!
Epic Fantasy, Good Reviews, Fast Paced, Broken Characters! What more could you ask for?

Authors: perhaps, instead of advertising for Amazon, include links to a few independent bookstores from which your new book is available.
Readers: Find the independent bookstores of choice and do your impulse buying through them!
My debut novel is on Amazon, but I'd prefer if you bought it via Bookshop. It's got malevolent AIs, spacewalks, and jokes about South American mountains! What more could you want? https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0DC59SWYB
I think some of this is that Xitter would not show or promote or prioritize posts that had links. So any promotion had to be done w/o links. I've seen a lot of creatives, not just authors, not realize that Bsky doesn't suppress links.
I've just written my debut novel about an FM player who gets a job at a real life football club in a relegation battle 'Game Changer - From Pixels to Pitches' available now on Amazon 😉 https://amzn.eu/d/4CgzObV
In obedience to your command, here's "A Bad Spell in Yurt," first in my main fantasy series and the gateway drug to all my books.
"He wasn't a very good wizard, but Yurt wasn't a very big kingdom." https://www.amazon.com/dp/B004S2CPM2
I’ll do you one better. Here’s a link to all of the digital platforms my most recent book is on! I have other books too, but I’m most proud of this one 💖 genre: dark poetry/surrealism https://books2read.com/u/b571jA
My book, “Confessions of a Former Prosecutor: Abandoning Vengeance and Embracing True Justice,” is about faith, criminal justice, vocation, and is 20 percent off on the publisher’s website!
