Promotion

I am doing my best to promote my books.  I am not saying that I am right.  I am saying I throw things out and see what works.  What works for me, might not work for you.

Twitter:

Not sure I understand twitter.  What I do know is that people are following me.  I know that I need to tweet more often and that is what I am trying to do.  Follow me on twitter @dogbone61  When you are choosing your twitter name, make sure it is one that fits your personality.  It will stay with you and follow you for a long time.

I picked @dogbone61 for the best dog in the world.  My Roxie.  She loved when when no one else did.  I will never forget her.  I always have  a dog in my stories. 

A tweet is 140 characters  find a catchy phrase.  url.  then hashtags #

Beleive it or not, there are lists out there.  If you put #amwriting it your tweet will go on that list.  you can list 2 or 3 hashtags example  #amwriting #99cents #writingtips, if you use all three hashtags, then your tweet will go on all three lists. 

When I tweet I use the hash tags:

#amwriitng
#writing
#indiepub
#mustread
#amreading
#99cents
#ebook
#kindle
 

What are some of the hashtags that you use.

I need to get my list longer.  Leave a comment and share your hashtags.

I know that I need help in this dept.

Writing When Sick

I didn't feel good the last two days.  I slept a lot, but I was still thinking about my writing.  I did sit on the couch with my laptop and did some writing, though that I know that I need to do rewrite, but I did write.  Today I feel better and hopefully I will get more pages into the computer.  I started the rewrite of a novel that has been rejected 20 times and I will get it back on the market. So that I it.  I am going to start writing and get this done. What are you working on??? This is a new year.....New Beginning. Let us follow our dream together check out my other blog: http://iamwalkingwithgod.blogspot.com/ Write Something Today

Don't Be Scammed

This is my number one pet peeve on being self published.  There are people, website, and courses out there, that want your money. THINK BEFORE YOU SPEND! There are websites out there that will charge you for services that you can learn to do yourself.  If you don't want to learn these things that is fine, pay for it.  But if the reason that you are paying for services is because you don't t think you can, you are totally wrong. I have said this before and I am saying it again.  I knew nothing when I started in 2011,  I had a computer.  I had no idea how to send a file via e-mail. I had no idea what to do one I got the file back from the formatter.  How do I get it uploaded on Amazon.  I had no idea that I had more than one drive on the computer.  I downloaded a file and had no idea where it went. If you are thinking that you can not learn this.  I am proof you can learn if you set your mind to it and are willing to learn. Don't...
