You've already found that properly placed promotion is welcome and well received here, Kate.
But an author gains more community standing and greater respect by, as you do, contributing to general discussions as well. It's all a game of give-and-take; of sharing what we have to offer in terms of advice and opinion.
This is an e-reading community that includes many ebook writers and publishers, so it does appreciate news of available works, but it really does thrive, I believe, on those who (again like you) become part of the community rather than visit merely to exploit a handy target market for their ebooks. I hope, but don't know for sure, that they are few.
Luck, best wishes and karma. Neil
