As an author with a new book, I'm interested in submitting content to The Brevity Blog. What are the specific guidelines for submissions related to recently published or forthcoming books, including the acceptable content type, the initial step before submission, and any required visual assets?
Navigate to 'brevity.wordpress.com'. Click on the 'Blog Submission Guidelines' link. Locate the section detailing submissions for recently published or forthcoming books. Identify the acceptable type of book-related submission. Determine the required initial step for these submissions. Identify the two visual assets specifically requested for these submissions. Synthesize this information into a concise answer.
State that the acceptable submission type is 'craft-focused interviews with authors about their book/process, or author-submitted examinations of writing or publishing issues that intersect with the recently published or forthcoming book'. State that the initial step is to 'query first'. State that the two visual assets to include are 'the book cover as well as the book author’s headshot'.
