Making Your Mark.

As an author you need to get your name out there and hopefully work up some recognition. This is something I've heard a lot.

Build that backlist. I've taken this to heart and am wokring hard to get this done.

Promote the best you can. This one isn't so easy.

So where does the new author find those chances.

Yahoo loops, but I'm not really sure how much exposure I'm getting.
I started my own blog, but again limited exposure at this point.
Social networking sites, Twitter, myspace, facebook. Got them all. Fun, but time consuming since I get sucked in by the games. (Yes, I'm addicted to Farmville)

My books have gotten some great reviews and I appreciated everyone. I do think this helps.

Conventions and get togethers seems like a good way to get out there, but they can be expensive.

So there it is my thoughts today in a nutshell. If you're up for it shout out your favorite promo ops.
