As an aspiring writer my job is 24/7, continuously doing something that I enjoy doing, which is writing - the biggest challenge is promoting and drawing exposure. Let's face it, unless you are a celebrity or political figure, you will have to work 10x harder to get the kind of exposure that a Sara Palin might receive.

Sites such as She Writes, AuthorsDen and many others are wonderful sites that allow us to share our knowledge and communicate with each other, however I wonder if we are utilizing these sites at our fullest potential?

I'd like to discuss how each of us aspiring and professional writers can assist each other in gaining success for our work. I'd like to hear some ideas -- I'll be the first to throw one idea out there

1. Each writer on this site choose a buddy, with your buddy you will order each other's book, read it, rate it and review it on their source page such as Amazon or Barnes & Noble.
