They have facilitated contact and built relationships with a number of influential people I might not otherwise have known, generated new business, and given me a fantastic way to interact with my readers. It has unquestionably increased my book sales. <br /><br />This is in addition to reuiniting me with literally dozens of personal friends and family that I had lost touch with over the years. Giving us an unintrusive way to keep up with each other's lives and organize ways to meet in person.<br /><br />At the very least, it will up your blog traffic a lot, and help you promote your clients to a wide audience that enjoys the types of books you have chosen to represent.<br /><br />Think about it.

Nobody seems to care. I have made contact with a couple people from my past lives who I couldn't otherwise find, so that part is good.<br /><br />BillBill Swearshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06556058541212067615noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3001434439078518468.post-10005002927884838702009-12-31T11:21:23.687-05:002009-12-31T11:21:23.687-05:00I understand your resistance to FaceBook. All this...I understand your resistance to FaceBook. All this social media stuff seems so trendy for writers, but I keep asking the same question each time someone new pressures me to join the S.M. rat race: Why would I steal from the precious little writing time I have now just to tell everyone I'm eating breakfast, reading emails, going to the store ... ad nauseam?<br /><br />However, please keep up with your blog. I really enjoy your insights into the industry and almost felt as if I were in NYC when reading your holiday posts.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15711771420603067433noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3001434439078518468.post-76103823705160022272009-12-30T19:44:59.215-05:002009-12-30T19:44:59.215-05:00What kind of a jerk would pressure you to get on F...What kind of a jerk would pressure you to get on Facebook?
