On my ever growing list of things to do, I have Facebook near the top. I'm not a heavy Facebook user. I barely ever log in. I know other writers have had success with Facebook, and I know a lot of readers are probably on it, but I don't know how much people would like this addition. I don't know what would happen if I did add a Facebook page. I've looked at other authors who have pages. I would definitely announce when projects were coming out, but being pithy and sharing links looks unlikely. Being pithy takes a lot of work. If you have an opinion, or if you don't, please take my poll below. It will help me know what I should do. Thanks!
Should I have a Facebook Page?
P.S. I've also added a "Subscribe by email" widget to the sidebar if anyone would like to get posts in their email. It is handled by Feedburner.
I hate the idea of being first to post a comment, but I just wanted to let you know the reason behind my own personal "yes" vote! When I am waiting @the doctor's office, or in line @the grocery store or any where mundane I whip out my smartphone and peek @the Facebook to see what's new. I don't generally peruse blogs, now matter how much I may like them, FB is just so much faster to access. =) I think it's a great tool for both you AND your fans!
ReplyDeleteAnon,
DeleteThank you so much for commenting and for the feedback! I didn't know Facebook was so easy to use on the smartphone. I've never actually looked at the website that way. I will definitely keep that in mind. So far, the overwhelming majority seems to think I should have a Facebook page.
