The literary publication for which I write book reviews for part time started a new campaign of ‘sponsored reviews’; for just a bit of coin your book, whether self published or not, gets a featured spot and quick turn-around. Here’s a quote from the in page:

“SBR Sponsored Reviews is a paid-review service that allows authors and publishers to receive expedited reviews of their book. You are not guaranteed a spot in the print publication, but a Sponsored Review gets your book reviewed by one of our already established reviewers, and the review will be put into our publication pipeline. If we do not use the review in the paper, we will place an ad for the book in the Sacramento Book Review, and we will place the review in our online edition, post it on Amazon, and make it available in our upcoming book review syndication service. You will also be able to use the review in your own marketing efforts.” – Sacramento Book Review Submission Page

The SBR folks have proven themselves ready and able to promote writers; this just another great tool in the digital arsenal… with a touch of old-world paper publication thrown in.
