I'm pleased to report that the Association of Independent Authors has chosen to feature me as their "Author in the Spotlight" for the month of May. There may not be anything in the article that members here do not already know, but it does give a small shout-out to MWSA, which pleases me.
Facebook posts do not show up in Google or Bing. If you really want to market yourself and your books, use the MWSA website.
While the MWSA website provides a lot of membership information, including Dispatches issues and content, we understand that many of you want to sell books and promote your appearances.
