You've described BookTalk.org as a "blog." We're not a blog. We're an "online book discussion forum." I'd change the word "blog" to "forum" but that's your choice. Nice job. :-)

Sorry about that Chris, I don't why I wrote blog (I think couldn't see the wood for the trees while compiling the list). I have made the change and in a couple of weeks (people are sending me more useful websites) I will update the link.

I downloaded this a month ago when ad posted it on Goodreads. I'm up to about 65-70 I believe, Some of the sites have been helpful while others not so much. I will note that it's how I found this site which I was going to bypass since I didn't need another discussion and forum site to be a part of but I decided to give it a go and so far I'm liking it. But yeah back to the list, I like how sometimes you give descriptions on what you can do on the site, how you can do it and how it worked for you. Sometimes I ran into dead ends and a lot of them are for when your books are free which I don't do so they weren't useful but the ones that didn't require your book to be free I looked into and used.

Thanks Adwinch. I don't do free books anymore either but I'll certainly look at the other sites.

I've added this to the "Navigating Published Life" section of my Author Support thread. Good resource, thanks!
