Ken Magee | 16 comments I have written two humorous contemporary fantasy novels that live under the tagline 'Ancient magic meets the Internet'. Like most authors, I find it hard to get noticed so I participate in a wide range of forums and social networking sites.

I play on Goodreads, Kindleboards, UK Kindle Users and Wattpad to name but a few. I also have a presence on Facebook,Twitter and LinkedIn.

I wondered where the readers here find their books. Do you pay attention to any of the above places when you're looking for your next read?

I'm trying to make this a general question and not a pitch... how would I grab your attention?

Gerald Griffin (authorgeraldggriffin) | 306 comments Sonya, take a look at my suspense thriller OF GOOD AND EVIL. It is to be made into a movie.

To learn about its quest from script to screen, please visit the latest posting, Ironic, on my author's blog, http://geraldggriffin.blogspot.com/

Kelly From their friends. Word of mouth is so so much.

At least, to me. When I read a book it is because one of my groups here is reading it, or a friend has told me about it.

I do sample some free books on amazon and using all of the above, I build my favorite authors list and read their stuff.
