First Upload Sample Chapters to Scribd, then Commence Horn Tooting

[Benjamin Sobieck]

Now I'm not one to toot his own horn – or one who starts doing something by denying that I frequently do it – but some horn tooting is in order. The first three chapters of "Cleansing Eden" went up over at Scribd. In less than 12 non-prime time reading hours, 110 people had read the chapters.

That may or may not knock your socks off, but I'm sure as heck happy about it. You can add to the read count by clicking here.

If you haven't used Scribd before, it's a great place to promote your books. You upload a document (Word, PDF or otherwise) and Scribd puts it in front of readers. Pretty cool. A lot of people uploaded entire books, but I'm not about to follow suit. These are teaser chapters only.

There's also the option to sell your eBook on Scribd. Again, not for me, but I can recognize the value.

The best thing about all this is it does not cost anything to upload. It's the perfect platform for sample chapters.
