ErinI’m a self-published author and I know a number of other self-published authors. It’s a tough literary world out there and it seems everyone is against you or trying to wring money out of your disillusionment. At Click My Lit, the promotion we do for you is FREE. That is NO STRINGS ATTACHED FREE.
Literary World Turned to Terra Cotta
Why? How? Who? (I’d throw in what and where but that would be a cliche). The who, is clickmylit.net and if you would like to put a link on your blog to us, we would be happy but it’s not mandatory (No Strings Attached). How is the second question (but who wasn’t the first). I personally found that I’m better at promotion in general, than I am at selling my own work. I’m putting my talents to work for you. Why, because big publishers are turning the literary world to terra cotta and someone NEEDS to do it if this generation is going to field any classic authors. The big publishers are only in it for the money and they are flushing away the cream, before it can rise to the top of the literary world.
How can a self-published author become involved with Click My Lit? Just contact us. Tell us a bit about your work and where it can be found. Click My Lit will take it from there. We’ll feature your work on our blog and draw some web traffic to it. This is win-win clickmylit.net gets a commission from the sale (a self-publisher wouldn’t have collected on that anyways) and you get the royalty. Pure and simple.
Self-published authors should bookmark clickmylit.net. More will be coming to this site soon and it’s all to benefit the self-publishers, the literary wold AND the reading public.

I started a book project a month ago and I’m developing my subject one knol at a time. The knol is Google’s new publishing platform and so far, I’ve written four and called the series the Kanshu Chronicle. I’m keeping to a weekly publishing schedule.
Hello! I am a self published children’s author and illustrator. I am currently publishing a Teacher’s Guide and working with another author. I am interested in free publicity and it seems as if your company could help.

Ok, where to start? my main website / blogs are down at the moment, guess I forgot to pay for hosting
d’oh!
Anyway, the book is on Amazon, if that link fails, just look for Desert Storm Diaries, you’ll find me
Its more of a human story than about the war. I was a helo mechanic, I responded to 100 people who wrote letters to “Any Service Member” and I also kept a diary of my daily activities.
If you go to Amazon, they have the preview feature, so you can read some of the pages without buying the book.
Any questions, please email me
Thanks

I deliberately bucked the mainstream to go it alone, but I don’t want to starve either!
My writing is anti-celebrity, anti-Hollywood, Anti-capitalist, anti-media, and anti-anti-intellectual, inspired by pulp fiction and film noir.
I’ve been told that my work is too philosophical to pitch as straightforward crime or romance, but it’s always nice to get another point of view.
Despite lurid and violent subject matter, I don’t think my work fits comfortably into the typical tween/20-something/boomer demographic paradigm, though any thinking person will get me immediately.
Tweet me your info http://twitter.com/0clickmylit or post it here and I’ll try to get something going for you.

I’m beginning to wonder why I should have bothered. I still love the book. Just can’t convince others it’s worth reading!

Stumbled across your site on twitter. Like what you’re doing. I’m trying to find my way through the maze of agents, publishers and readers.
However I do have nice stories from a golf setting with reoccurring characters. Lots of social commentary and hypocrisy.
