So my self- marketing strategy for marketing Aura Sight is simply to spread out my web presence. Thus far:
1)MySpace: http://www.myspace.com/michelle_mythe :Not normally a site I was interested in, but on my list to spread my social presence. So far, loads of friend requests, but all people promoting their music. Does me little good, but found some awesome local bands.
2)Facebook: Well I love facebook already, but the problem is I use a pen name for writing and you cannot have two accounts. So I created a fan page, as you can imagine not too much of a fan base yet.
3)Twitter: http://twitter.com/mythemichelle :Again not a site I would usually use... cause, seriously, does any need to know the random junk in my head or what I am doing. However, as an author it has intriguing possibilities. You can link to your work for one. But also, what I have been doing for the 30 or so followers I somehow achieved, is posting two chapters a week for a free reading of Aura Sight. Mostly to attract attention, or a interested audience or even feedback.
4)Blog listings: over the last few weeks I have been adding myself to various blog listings, for this site and my main author site. Just to potentially pull in traffic.
That is about it so far, except of course putting some free reading on some other sites.

I have not joined Twitter or Myspace. I paid $14 last month to adgitize and I went from 6 followers to 21 in 4 days, my visitor counter went to over 100. I also earned half that money back, so am going to try it for another month. It is good to get to read other blogs, I joined link referral and catablog, these have got me new viewers too. (my author site has the links on) Happy Scribbling G
This blog is so useful! Congratulations and best of luck on your book!
Thanks Chick :)
Glynis, I have also made use of certain adverts on certain sites. I will likely use more after my twitter campaign is finished.
