Creepypasta wiki taught me the art of shameless self-promotion. Having a published book is pretty much the same deal. Engaging and discovering readers, meeting other authors and reading and reviewing their work, and being a good community member. I just moved up from the internet short story world to the horror novelist community (it takes a lot longer to read someone's novel than it does to read their CP, though, lol). Seems to be working all right, though it's a struggle and fiercely competitive, for one brief shining moment my novel was the number two Amazon bestseller in horror.

@Mmpratt, I'd encourage you to join as many Facebook YA and children's sites as possible, make a nice looking ad, and cover the internet with it.
