Great Sites
Just a little heads-up on a few other websites for indie authors looking to spread the word about your latest creation. I search high and low for places to post a little something about my work, look to discover other authors' writing, and generally meet those who share that same passion for the written word.
http://www.koobug.com is a wonderful place that supports and promotes indie authors all over the world. The site allows writers to post where their books are available. They provide a blog space for authors to post short stories, ideas, or just rant and rave if you like. The Koobug motto is: Koobug is about authors. They live up to this motto.
http://www.writing.com is another site dedicated to indie writers looking to share their work. This site offers a free level, which allows for the posting of short stories. But they also have several pay packages that grant greater privileges depending on the level purchased. This is a writers community, meaning your short stories are posted for potential reviews and feedback from other writers. This is an amazing site for those who are struggling with such things as sentence construction, proper usage of word, or punctuation issues. But it's also for established writers who may want to share their work and expertise with others. There are thousands of writers on this site, most willing to offer a hand where needed.
http://www.readwave.com offers writers a place to post short stories for others to read and critique. This is a site that prides itself on promoting top-level stories and writers, so have a second and third set of eyes have a look at your work before posting. Remember, proofreading is not a sin.
http://www.youngwritersonline.net offers writerly advice, community feedback, and a place to post and read book reviews. This is a growing site that really deserves any attention it receives.
There are other sites, but this is enough for now. I'll post links to others in the future. The key for indie authors is to get word out that, Hey! I've written a book! Use these sites as a network that reaches as many potential readers as possible. And above all, have fun with this journey.

Koobug.com Now Offers Reviews/Interviews
I am thrilled to announce Koobug.com is now offering book reviews and author interviews. I am truly honored and sincerely humbled to be the first interview and review on this wonderful indie author site. With a pre-interview request for a personal bio, they were able to tailor the questions to the author specifically. I want to thank the team at Koobug.com for making this a memorable experience. I invite everybody over for a read.
