Wednesday Writing Links for September 12, 2012

Everyone seemed to like last week’s post — at least, judging by the number of retweets the link received, you did — so all right, then. Looks like this is a thing we do here now. Let’s get to it.

Twitter Hashtags for Writers, Authors, and Self-Publishers | Self-Publishing Resources (I’m always on the lookout for the best hashtags — search keywords for Twitter, basically — to help reach a wider audience.)
Where Can You Promote Your Free Ebook? | Lindsay Buroker (Giving away free books is the best way to get reviews, but getting the word out can be a challenge.)
The Top Places To Submit Your Free Kindle Select Books By Jim Kukral | Book Marketing Strategies and Tips For Authors (Variations on a theme.)
Guest Post: How To Make a Chilling Book Trailer by RED RIBBONS author Louise Philips « Catherine, Caffeinated (I’ve got one of these coming soon, myself. Will post it here when it’s ready.)
Creating a Screensaver of Your Favorite Books. | The Passive Voice (This is a really neat idea, and maybe I’ll do this whenever I finally manage to get a great big flatscreen TV.)

On a more personal note, I’ve got a pretty exciting announcement coming tomorrow — I’ve contacted some of you about it directly already, and those of you who are subscribed to my newsletter will find out later this afternoon, but for the rest of you, watch this space. (Not literally. I mean, check back tomorrow. I mean, you can just sit there and keep hitting “refresh” if you want, but I think that’d be a little weird. I’m just saying.)
