WHAT'S NEW IN 2026?
Each year I tweak the Author Content Calendar… but 2026 got a full glow-up. Here’s what’s new (and way better) this year:
-
400 brand-new Canva templates for Instagram
All templates were created and designed in 2025, so the fonts, layouts, and styles feel current and on-trend—not like something from three algorithms ago. -
New format with more space + step-by-step guidance
The 2026 layout gives you expanded space for instructions, with clear notes that walk you through exactly how to recreate trending post styles—so you’re not just given a prompt, you’re given a path. -
All-new, up-to-date examples from real authors
Every example has been refreshed using author content from the last year, so you’re not looking at outdated trends or old formats that no longer perform. -
100 post ideas (with examples) for launching a new book
A dedicated section with 100 launch-focused post ideas, plus examples you can plug your own book into—perfect for release months, re-launches, and box sets. -
Optional add-on: Canva templates for Reels & TikToks
Want to make video easier, too? You can upgrade with an optional 2026 TikTok/Reels Canva Template Bundle (68 short-form video templates) that pairs with your calendar themes.
Let's show up consistently in 2026
Showing up on social media is so much easier (and dare I say... actually fun) when you have the right tools.
That's why this 2026 calendar bundle is packed with Canva templates for both Instagram and Reels/TikTok. These are the same beautiful, plug-and-play designs I created throughout 2025 for over 300 members of the Author Content Club-real authors who've tested them in their own feeds and love how simple they make marketing. In other words: these templates are proven in the wild, not just pretty mockups.
All of the templates have been updated and are ready to go-just swap the colors for your branding, drop in your content and book covers, and you're ready to post in minutes.
Who This Is For?
Perfect for both authors & PA's who
-
Want to show up consistently on social without burning out
-
Are tired of “What do I post today?” panic
-
Want content ideas that actually sell books (not just random trends)
-
Love the idea of having a plan for the whole year…
Want even more motivation and accountability?
Join the Author Content Club!
- Weekly Content Plans (Like the Calendar... but Supercharged)
Every Friday, you'll get a week of post ideas for all your platforms-Instagram, Facebook, TikTok, and Reels. Each plan includes examples, prompts, and step-by-step walk-throughs, so you never have to wonder what to post. Stay consistent and stay on top of the latest Bookstagram trends without doing all the research yourself. - Trend Tuesdays: Bookstagram, Decoded
Every Tuesday, I share a current Bookstagram trend, how to jump on it, and exact examples from authors, plus matching Canva templates you can plug your own books into. No more "I saw that trend but have no idea how to use it as an author." - Exclusive Content Drops
Get access to monthly Canva templates, curated stock photos, and unique stock video clips created specifically for authors. These assets are designed for members and aren't available anywhere else. - Newsletter Templates & Guides
Access plug-and-play newsletter templates and easy-to-follow guides that make email marketing less overwhelming and more effective-so you're not starting from a blank page every time you email your list. - Supportive Community & Direct Access to Me
Join a community of motivated authors who are sharing what's working, asking questions, and cheering each other on. Plus, you'll get exclusive access to me to request specific templates, ask strategy questions, and get help tailoring ideas to your unique brand and books.

NEW: Reels/TikTok Template Bundle (Optional Add-On)
68 Canva Templates for Reels/TikToks
The Reels & TikTok Add-On gives you 68 short-form video Canva templates designed specifically for authors.

Just drop in your book covers, tweak the text, and post to TikTok, Instagram Reels, or Facebook Reels—no filming-from-scratch stress required.
Q&A Time
so who are you anyway?
My name is Jessica and I am a graphic designer, author assistant and website designer! I created the Author Content Calendar after helping several authors create content and manage their social media. I started making content calendars for my clients and thought, "hey, I bet others could use these content ideas, too!" and boom! The Author Content Calendar was born!
