I fell off the writing wagon. I know. I KNOW. It's November, NaNoWriMo month. I should be vomiting up words by now. I should be wrist deep in carpel tunnel guards with matching novelty socks.

Keep working at social media, but do consider doing what the pros have always done – broadcast to unsuspecting masses.
I hope I can help by sharing this list of book marketing sites and ideas…
