Social Media Indie Author Groups

 

I recently decided to leave a few self-promotion groups for indie authors on Facebook due to the lack of approval for my recent posts. While I noticed other authors successfully promoting their work, my submissions remained unapproved for several weeks, prompting my departure from those groups. I chose to stay with the groups that did approve my posts, but I find it perplexing why my contributions were overlooked. As an indie author, self-promotion is crucial, and social media offers valuable opportunities. However, it feels misleading when groups claim to support self-promotion for indie authors yet exclude certain posts. I wanted to share my experience to inform fellow authors about this issue. If you've had similar problems, please comment in the comment box below. thank you.

New Decade, New Projects






New Decade, New Projects? Well, actually I decided to drop one of the  books I'm working on. It's called, Finding Loretta. I feel that I should concentrate more on completing Chandra's Quest book 3: Immorality, the final installment of the trilogy. 



 I will delve more into book 3, completing the draft & editing it. I might publish it by the end of next year--hopefully. As for my other books, well I finished the draft for Secret Diary of a Gypsy Heart. Not so hard to do since it is a novelette. I plan on making it a prequel to a book I have been mulling over in my head. Secret Diary of a Gypsy Heart is loosely based on a real diary. That's all I will say about it.


Out in the Open, is still on the agenda but no rush on finishing it anytime soon. The book is a prequel to the Phoenix Files. This new decade will be one of wonder, determination, and hope. 

Last Words:
Write what you feel and know. Everyone has a unique gift to writing a good book. For every book you write, there is an audience you'll attract. What might not appeal to some, might appeal to others. Find a category you are comfortable with and just do it.
Write the draft then go over it a few times, then edit it. Most of all have a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year.
