Aside from free reads, which has already been suggested, I'll offer one thing: nothing turns me off more than a site or blog that is left unattended. It's awful to see one that hasn't been updated in months. So, that's it for me: regular posts & maintenance.

A reader of mine recently sent me a suggestion for a blog post that might be of interest to your readers, too, either here or on your site. Here's a cut-and-paste:<br /><br />"Random blog suggestion for you: have you considered expanding upon your own writing process a little?

We all learn from someone, so I think it’s a nice shout-out.<br /><br />I have just one suggestion you might consider: For each of your titles you link to the popular booksellers. What about a link to a Canadian bookseller? I’m in the US now, but I recall Lori A.

I'll do that.<br /><br />To answer your question in brief, though, a novel typically runs 80 - 120K. That's adult fiction, and genre; YA stuff and litfic have a little more flexibility.<br /><br />50-80K is, honestly, pretty light.

I have read a vast majority of those books off your reccomendations.<br /><br />One part I would like to see added to the writers section is something more in tune to say, the specifications that agents/publishers are looking for.
