It's official, I have an IndieGoGo campaign. Feel free to check it out: HERE.

Please, please, please help! If you can't donate, please spread the news and share the link on social networks.

Let's see how this goes and if it does work I'll let you all know, and in the future if anyone else wants to try IndieGoGo or Kickstarter or even OffBeater let me know and I will massively promote your campaign and donate if I can.

Thank you!
 
Jesus that's a good title "1-800-VAMPIRE."

Good for you for giving it a go. These sites have many tricky aspects that are not generally understood though...

Don't get discouraged by anything. I am sure you will discover the way forward no matter what.

Thanks! Ultimately I can let the publisher know about the original title and the second, but traditional publishers choose the title themselves so the only way I could choose the title myself is to self-publish (usually).

Thanks to everyone who has shared the campaign on social networks, the buzz is building and thank you all!
 
And never forget to be a writer - while you are also being a marketer.

(That's advice to myself, of course!)
 
Please do check out the campaign and read through friends. It is going slow mostly because as a writer I'm and introvert and have not yet done much to establish a heavy internet presence.

So if you can read through and spread the word by sharing on your own sites and social networks it will greatly help. Thank you!
 
Looking For Some Help

Hello there readers and authors. I'm Nora Quick aka madam_noe on here. In addition to being a fairly prolific literotica author I have self published 2 novels with a 3rd coming out next month, and will be publishing in the next 2 years 2 novels with Red Sage.

I am planning to write a non-erotic book "The Longest Midnight" and I hope to sell that book to a traditional publisher. However, I need a little help with it.

If you have the time, please check out my IndieGoGo campaign. If you can contribute, thank you! Any amount helps. If you can;t, please share it on your social networks.

My goal is to write an urban fantasy novel with true horror, real humor, no hackneyed romance, and none of the emo whining about lamenting being supernatural or consistent self-haranguing about sex.

Please take the time to read through he campaign and any help at all you can offer is truly appreciated. Thanks!
 
Did you get the ok from Laurel to post this? This site is great because spammy stuff and advertising is off limits for the most part. This is kind of flirting with the edges of self promotion spam, imho. Also, I think crowd sourcing is the ultimate in vanity investment and pretty vapid as well as a ripoff for the ROI, but knock yourself out.

Don't hate me, Nora...but I read this in a Troy McClure voice and I larfed. :D

I'm also drinking a few gins. :eek:

Is that the fictional newscaster guy on The Simpsons? If so, I love that guy so hard.

His intro dialogue is often starting out virtually the same way Nora wrote her intro here. Couldn't help it. :D

I went back and read her post in Troy McClure tone and giggled my ass off. Totally accurate.

It's okay to post on the site but this is the wrong forum. This request should be in the Authors' Hangout forum in the "Authors and Their Books" thread, Authors frequently post their asking for advice on selling their work.

I think she already posted one thread there.
 
LOL thanks to most of you idiots who replied to this thread on the general forum. Charming that apparently you have no filter in your head when replying in internet forums. Just read most of the replies to my best friend, thanks for entertaining us with nonsense.

Since this post was made to reach more readers on the site (since there are plenty who don't come into the author's hangout) I guess you just taught me the general forum is full of stupidity.

Lesson learned. I will no longer poke at the mentally disabled.

Also, as a note, Troy McClure begins all his talks with "Hi, I'm Troy McClure, you might remember me from..."

It just isn't me, I'm more a Dr. Nick type. So bye everybody!
