Kelvin’s Comments (group member since Apr 12, 2011)

Kelvin’s comments from the Promoting and Socialising with authors group.

To be honest, I don't really know what tagging does to one's book. I believe it increases that book's ranking on Amazon. Something weird though is that, Amanda Hocking's first book doesn't have much tags and yet still a best seller.. you can check that out for yourself. Anywho, there's no harm in helping other authors with their book's ranking. Please, leave the url for your book(s). and tag the others before you. Also, please stop by this group once in a while to tag newcomers.

Thank you

Quite interesting, Sophia. Let us know how the revision goes. I read the blurbs and reviews of the three books on your blog, and I am really impressed.

I really like your project, Rachel. It's really inspiring.

As writers, we love when we're asked to discuss about our books. So this is your chance. Talk about you present, past and future projects. Please, let your discussion be a bit informal. I won't like to see spams here from authors I admire :)

Thank You

I find twitter the easiest means of updating the world about your projects, personal life etc. Again, people see twitter as a shrink and complains about every single thing. (I am a victim)

Anyways, list your twitter account(s) and follow others listed. Don't be selfish please, if someone follows you from this thread please follow back.

Okay. As of now, I have followed everyones' blogs.

This is another avenue where writers can interact with their readers. Every author should have a facebook page, where they can post updates etc.

Blogs are a really good a way to promote your works and yourself. If a viewer views your blog, he or she should at least know what's the purpose of the blog.

Post your blogsites here and follow each others' sites. Imagine if everyone follows at least ten blogs here, our followers would be increased. Let's help each other.
