Proud To Be A Promo Ho

I spent hours upon hours this weekend finishing my revisions for Love In Shadow. I really like how they turned out and I’m glad my editor suggested all those things. Editors are really useful people, ya know? And can I just say “my editor” one more time please? Because I really like the ring of that.

Anyway, I also spent hours upon hours this weekend researching self-promotion for my new eBook (coming soon from The Wild Rose Press, nudge nudge). At midnight, I had a crazy epiphany. Usually, I don’t trust crazy midnight epiphanies because, um, they’re crazy and it’s midnight, and they usually turn out to be stupid in the morning light. But I was so punch-drunk on web surfing between loads of laundry, I went ahead and set up the blog.

Lo and behold, this morning when I woke up, the idea hadn’t gotten stupider. Imagine that. I mean, really, if I’m going to spend all that time researching how to promote my eBook, why wouldn’t I put it online? There are about a billion eBook authors out there (I’m totally not kidding) and I’m sure some of them want to know this stuff.

So today, I’m unveiling Promo Ho. It’s scant on the articles just yet, but the quality is there, I think, and I’m going to be posting pretty much everything I find. I’ve seriously got a list of like 50 sites that review eBooks, just for starters. So check it out and let me know what you think. Oh and feel free to steal my little graphic and use it to advertise. Cute, ain’t it?

    1. I’m retarded. Congrats. I thought I said it earlier but see re: retarded.

    2. You frighten me.

    3. When you started writing, you outlined other books like crazy, right? Because I’m going to write a play that has a very definite structure (it’s a secret so if you care to discuss it we can via email) and that’s my plan. And you’re my hero.

    4. Sarah’s totally jealous of you.

    *lol* Yep, we all pimp our ebooks when it’s time to promo them.

    Kiba,

    1. You are not retarded. And THANK YOU! I will take as many congrats as I can get. :-)

    2. It is TOTALLY my goal in life to frighten people and also to make people jealous (see #4). Heeeee. I win.

    3. Yes. Outlining is good. Unless you’re a pantser. I think what it comes down to is how you can work. I can’t work without a halfway-done outline, so I outline.

    4. See #2.
