Subscribe to my blog instead of Facebook — here’s why

You now have the ability to subscribe to my blog and be notified via email whenever there’s a new blog post. This is in addition to the New Release email list, which I try to keep focused only on new titles.

You might already be aware of this, but Facebook does not share the things I post there with all of my Facebook followers. Their algorithms kick in, and I have to pay to try to get my message out to you, even if you’re following me! And, to make it worse, if I’ve posted a cover to my book, they often won’t take my money at all: they have a rule about graphics that contain more than 25% text…they won’t promote them. Many of my book covers have at least 25% text, so they routinely shoot me down! What winds up happening is that you never receive my post in Facebook, no matter what I try. That sucks!

The best way to hear from me is by subscribing to my blog. See the widget at right (if you’re on a PC) or at the bottom (if you’re mobile.) I don’t post a ton, so you won’t be inundated, and you can always unsubscribe if things don’t work out.  Of course I don’t share my email lists with anyone and they’re kept private.

I’ve turned on Comments for my blog, so feel free to leave your thoughts here instead of Facebook!
