I have a blog and a website but I found the blog is better to get ideas out there and think whereas a website is more of a marketing tool..It depends what you want out of the online presence?`

Alison, We're delighted to have you in the novelist group! You might introduce yourself by telling us what you’re working on in the “Show Me Your Novel and I’ll Show You Mine” discussion if you're not too uncomfortable talking about what you're working on.

We do a live chat which we're working on the schedule for, but will likely be Wednesdays at 1 EST; instructions on how to participate are in the "Our Water Cooler" box near the top of the group page. Do join us! And we save the wall for discussion, but welcome links to helpful blog posts on the “Links to Helpful Blog Posts for Writers” discussion thread.
