| I play board games with international knuckleheads online and use the "handle" slang101.com
Any time I'm on the beach or walking around or in a bus or in a cafe, there's a copy of my book or whatever publication I'm working right there in plain site.
There's a lot of stuff you can do for free if you just think about it.
Anybody painted their car with their URL or cover yet?

| Another good list, there, Gordon.
Nothingbinding seems a little odd to me. Have you made it work for you?

I would say nothingbinding.com isn't the best book site, but at least I've got a page on it (although it's very hard to find it with the web site's built-in search engine).  You'd probably be better off going with www.authorsden.com if you havn't already.  |

| I like Authors' Den. It always makes the first page in a Google search. (You can read some of my short stories at my page at http://www.authorsden.com/philwhitley )
If you link to other authors there, you get email alerts when they add something new - but the important (selfish?) thing is, the more hits you get there and the more "subscribers" you have - make the Google bot find you and moves you up on the search pages.

| Brew, I like Author's Den as well. Mr. Stodghill is there and recommended it on another board. Based on that, I set up an account with them, and I really like the tracking features it offers. You can view me there: http://www.authorsden.com/zadaconnaway
