Kindle Forums

You know how you need money to make money?

Sometimes it seems that way with books. You need to hit the top 20 to stay in the top 20.

And we're all looking for the answer to get into the top 20.

While promoting ebooks, I've heard a lot of people mention the Kindle forums. They say it is a good place to interact and promote and share information about your book.

I'm not much of a forum gal. I was when I was younger, but I don't seem to have the spare time like I did then (what happened??? Oh yeah I got married and had three kids). Still, I made an account and joined the Kindle forums.

I've been there once. I was a bit overwhelmed, to be honest. And maybe I realized that I could easily--easily--spend all day in there, reading posts and commenting on them.

But I've decided to give them another go. I'm going to start chatting it up on the Kindle forums, all with the ulterior motive of enticing people to want to read my ebook. My goaL: get to the top 100. Okay, stop laughing at me. Not all of your goals are realistic either. I have to aim high!

Wish me luck. But before I get started, anyone have any advice? Is anyone active on there? Can you give me some tips of what you do?

I'll be curious to see how it goes! I haven't joined the Kindle forum yet. I have this fear that it's going to be a whole lot of people all pushing their own books ad nauseum.

I do not even know how I ended up here, but I thought this post was great. I don't know who you are but definitely you're going to a famous blogger if you aren't already ;) Cheers!
