Really? That would have been one of the major reasons to do something like this. I'm going to look into it and see if there is some way of promoting Hive, even without outright promoting it.

Maybe saying something like, 'the authors of this book met on Hive, where each of them share their work.' Or something along those line, just to give readers of a place to go looking.

Or, maybe a way around it would be for each author to have a site, which links back Hive.

At least with each of those, there is a chance for people to make their way here
