Yes, by the time I read the book, write the review, spell-check, add the links, look up the author and book info, post it, then add the review to Amazon, LT, GoodReads, etc, I am TIRED! I don't think I'm exagerating to say that I easily spend 2-3+ hours per review just writing it up. Posting on other sites takes time too, and then I generally get too tired to add links anywhere else!<BR/><BR/>LOL - probably more than you needed to know, but I thought I'd let you know that I don't think you are lazy! Plus - as you said - we all love comments!<BR/><BR/>Thanks for stopping by and participating in Thingers last week!

But in general self-promotion is not a forte of mine. The only real-life friend who reads my blog is always scolding me about it, but I just don't have the personality for it. I don't like to do gimmicky book giveaways. Like you, I'd rather just write good stuff (or try to) and hope people slowly find out about it.<BR/><BR/>Probably a stupid idea. If there were some more authentic and organic way of promoting I might be more into it. Guess I should give it some creative thought.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8684061712648858453.post-72334659125763809472009-02-03T18:16:00.000-05:002009-02-03T18:16:00.000-05:00I post on LT, Good Reads and amazon.

Usually I only do it when I really liked the book or I'm really "proud" of my review :)Lenore Appelhanshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16664671644163369772noreply@blogger.com
