With regard to the internet, authors have so many places for readers and fans to interact with them.

But why so many? Answer: for both visibility and availability.

I get it. With so many options it can get confusing, and that holds true even for us. The problem is, there isn't just one answer. There's no panacea, no single, perfect way to interact with everyone. Not everyone uses Facebook, understands Twitter, bothers with Instagram, or enjoys scouring through emails day in and day out.

The only way for us to reach everyone is to utilize every method available.

Below is a slideshow list of the methods I use. Each picture contains a link.
