From time to time I get authors who will email me and ask me how I get my name out there. To be honest, its a full-time job! I pound the pavement constantly. I'm always looking for places to host me. A blog who wants an excerpt, a FB page who wants me to participate in a contest, blog hops and sites that will post my links. I find you have to be consistent and persistent.
Today I'm sharing THREE opportunities for you as the author to spread the word on your upcoming and existing releases and for the reader, perhaps a new place to discover a new author or two.
My first shout out goes to a brand new blog created by our very own Tamaria Soana.
The concept of is easy just post 7 - 10 Sinful Sentences Each Saturday on your site!
Rules are simple.
Post must be live by 9 am EST. You must include 7-10 sinful sentences.
Our banner and link to this blog must be in the post.
Each week fill out the form.
Sign up will begin each Sunday morning and end on Wednesday night.

The next site has a similar concept as the above but it runs on Sundays.
Sexy Snippets are seven sentences, taken from a work in progress, or published book, brought to you every Sunday.
If you want to join in the fun, sign on at the linky below. Then on Sunday, put seven sentences on your blog. Be sure to use #SexySnippets in the title and link back to this page, please.
Only seven sentences, please, and make sure your post is up by 9.00 am GMT. If you're in a different timezone, then please schedule your post to be up for midnight your time.
