I have a Facebook page and have built up quite a few "likes" as I know, and chat to, a lot of people who publish and write these books (UK horror small presses). I started using Pinterest but not sure how to use it without seeming too pushy (linking to my sales all the time feels somehow wrong). I haven't got to grips with Twitter yet - just can't figure out how to use it. Besides, with Pinterest and Twitter I'd still need to build up a lot of followers - at least I already have those on Facebook.
I don't have a website. I'm not very techno-savvy and haven't got around to setting one up yet. And, again, I'd be starting from zero there too.
Any advice from those of you who are more experienced than me would be much appreciated. Thanks!
