Okay, I have some questions. Since I have a new novel coming out in April, I admit to still floundering around with the promotion/marketing thingy. Although I do take it very seriously, I still refuse the 'buy my book mentality', so here are some questions for you:
When searching for a new e-book or physical book to read, how do you go about it? Is it purely by word of mouth? Great cover and blurb, or price? Or a combination.
What kind of giveaways most draw you to pick up a new read?
Shiny things, a free book, or... insert what makes you wish to buy from a particular author.
How often do you actually go to an author's website to read about them?
Even if the author is little known - a newbie - what is it that draws you to try their writing?
Thank you in advance. I really appreciate your input.
