Just ...Thanks for the promo, Rebecca. You rock. :)<br /><br />Just wanted to comment on the social networking aspect...I don't have a FB account, but I am on Twitter. It's an easy, non-demanding way to connect with other writers and readers in 140 characters or less. Does it translate to more sales? I can't say, but the hashtags twitterers use to encourage people to follow their friends (#FollowFridays is one of them) help get your name out there. If people are paying attention, anyway. ;)Cari Quinnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06581235338272282124noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2295513765923392477.post-23159717355543222472009-11-06T18:42:11.114-08:002009-11-06T18:42:11.114-08:00Cindy, they're not laughing AT you but WITH yo...Cindy, they're not laughing AT you but WITH you.Rebecca J.

Though if I had to guess, I'd say Facebook would help an author touch base with those who are already readers--not sure it would do much to gain new ones. After all, how will someone find your Facebook page unless they see your name/book somewhere else first?<br /><br />I could be wrong--authors with Facebook pages for readers, please share your experiences!Avery Beckhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17529933509919058786noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2295513765923392477.post-63168491831266509802009-11-06T11:12:02.665-08:002009-11-06T11:12:02.665-08:00Hey Avery, you mentioned Facebook.

I mean, I think it's fun connecting with fellow writers through them, but have you noticed that you're connecting with readers this way?Rebecca J.
