Have you been on Goodreads lately? Did you know that advertising on Goodreads is inexpensive and, frankly, fun. Looking at all those statistics on my ads makes me happy. What, you’re not advertising there? Our Melinda Clayton will show you how to advertise with Goodreads. Meanwhile, how about we stir things up with a Goodreads like-fest?
Today you can share your author page and find new friends. For your profile, grab that URL which should look like this: https://www.goodreads.com/KSBrooks and paste it in the comments below. (Not sure where to find your fancy URL? See the image below and look for the aqua arrow.) Now everyone can “Like” your author page. The “Like” button is found about 1/3 of the way down the page on the same side as the author photo. Clicking on that will show that you like that author’s page on your Facebook wall. There’s also a Google+ button there, so if you have a Google+ account and you’re feeling generous, go ahead and click on that, too. Still not sure where the “like” button is? Click on this thumbnail to enlarge it and look for the magenta arrow.
[Don’t forget, if you right-click the links, you can choose to have them open in a separate tab so you don’t have to worry about navigating back and forth to pages.]
PLEASE be sure to reciprocate by liking those who like you. This is give and take. If everyone plays by the golden rule, we all benefit.

Happy Wednesday, everyone!!! https://www.goodreads.com/author/show/7330360.Stephanie_A_Collins
I’m not sure if this is correct, I hope so! It had user/show and I changed it to author/show
https://www.goodreads.com/author/show/14014495-ester-shifren
Nope, it’s all wrong and has led to an Asian page! Please administrators, delete this post and see whether this one is correct after all:

OK, it’s all wrong so I want all my posts here deleted and I’ll try to work out why it’s incorrect. Please Kat, or someone, delete these and let me know why I can’t find my author page. TIA.
Ester, I think this is your author page, but it looks like you haven’t filled it in yet: https://www.goodreads.com/author/show/6648325.Ester_Benjamin_Shifren?from_search=true&search_version=service
Not sure what to do here! Just when I think I’m making progress, I have to take a few steps back! Thanks for helping.
Ester, have you set yourself up as an author on Goodreads yet? Where is your book on there?
Thanks so much for all the help. I’ll have to look into it. I’ve got reviews for my book, but haven’t been on the site in a meaningful way for ages. I was just checking up on all help topics.
