I love the wild wild Web and all it’s producing for authors in terms of new tools to use to promote your books. There is an espescially cool site fReado , still in beta,but definitely worth checking out.
I recommend you register with the site or at the very least, ask your publisher if they are registering your book for you on the site. Also you can follow them on Twitter.com/fReado .
Disclaimer: No, I’m not an affiliate of the site. No, I make no money telling you to register. No, I did not put the tack in my teacher’s chair in third grade. Yes, I did steal a copy of William Saroyan’s The Human Comedy when I was in 7th grade from our school libary and I still have it.
I got this from a tweet that Joe Wikert (Twitter/jwikert)put out and I think it’s a great article on how publishers really have to understanding the power of indie authors and adapt.
Check out that ponderous question at the NYTimes article here.
Today is my birthday and with hubby and kids tucked safely in bed, here I sit doing a blog post! I’m so grateful for the clients I have and the wonderful collaborative work I get to do with them.
The web is a crazy hodge podge of amazing folks and I’m so glad to have been hanging out here for almost 14 years!
So I’ll sigh not over my age, but over the fantastic achievements of my past and present clients like Joe Camp, Alex Skolnick, Carole Carson, Lloyd Dangle, and others who constantly dream bigger and better!
And I will be thankful for my family and friends…virtual ones too that help make my journey so darn fabulous.
Also, have to thank the Texas Writers League -who had me come in last Saturday for three hours and teach a brilliant group of folks all about Web 2.0. The caliber of folks there was just inspiring!
And I don’t know where you’ll be the first weekend in November, but I will be steadfastly at the Texas Book Festival, oohing and ahhing over the tremendous and talented authors from all over the country!
