Guys I'm going to throw in a few thoughts as a writer because they seem to be copping a bit of a hiding here.
Yeah I won't lie, I did join MR as a means to promote my book by interacting with readers, getting feedback and generally building awareness. As a writer in a world in which the big publishers are dying I would be insane not to. E-books are the way of the future. Problem is, as many of you have outlined, there's a whole bunch of self promoters writing junk and spamming the world. However, as most of you have mentioned, these people are easy to spot. More than often their writing is terrible and forums like this are full of people who can see that.
Anyway I look forward to criticism and engagement, because that's what I came here for.
