I got featured on Indie Plot Twist! How cool is that?
There are lots of ways to find followers and get a little recognition. Indie Plot Twist is all over Twitter because they have an innovative way of incorporating your post with clickable tweets that send out the highlights of your message.
I found the site because one of my author friends posted on it. They mentioned it, so I checked it out and submitted. Now Indie Plot Twist is running my guest post and I’m mentioning it to you.
The site is good for many reasons but posting there couldn’t be easier. They have a button; you use it to contact them. Send your thoughts and they’ll let you know in a pretty fast manner. That’s it. If they like it, they schedule you and ask for some additional stuff, like links.
Now, when you see your blog post on their site, you tell the world like I am. They get more readers, you get more readers. Everybody wins.
After you read a few posts on their site, you’ll see what they are looking for in content. Subscribe, and you’ll always have the latest tips.
It’s a good way to get your name out there, and guess what? There are lots of sites that will let you do a guest blog post.
Like this one.
For example, we will be featuring author interviews but we also have our friends of the blog post stuff we all need to know about. Al Macy is doing a few for us about building an email list (how to do it, why you need one) and using Kboards to get input on covers, blurbs, and titles. When his new book comes out in early 2016, we’ll be featuring him in a fun interview. Al gets a little exposure for his books and he becomes a trusted commodity by being a guest blogger here. You learn stuff you need from somebody who just did it. It’s a win-win.
That’s what you want, too.
So give Indie Plot Twists a shout, and send me an email (use the Contact Me button) to tell me what you’d like to guest post about.
Then, when it runs, you tell everybody – giving you an excuse to talk about yourself and your new book, drive traffic to your blog, or whatever!
It helps us; it helps you. And not every great idea has to come from me.

Congrats Dan!
Oh, and one more thing. I enjoy your blog and personality. Sometimes, I think you are being super sarcastic. Lol
You were nominated (which also means you won) for the Versatile Blogger Award…by me.
Here is my post about it:
Congrats on your Versatile Blogger Award. Just save the image to your computer (from my blog) and then put it on yours. 🙂
I might have to give that “Indie Plot Twist” a look.

Thank you and thank you again! Glad you’re enjoying the blog. I always wondered if I was versatile, and now I know. Or does that apply only to the blog?
