To summarize: Haven has done pretty well on Smashwords; I'm pretty happy to have hit the top 50 less than 2 months. I'm pleased as punch at its success thus far, but I've been pounding the marketing for it.

Have some of you other folks been engaging in similar efforts? I feel like I need to relax a bit on signing up for/advertising in more Goodreads and Shelfari-type places, maybe focus a little more time and effort on writing. Any thoughts?

I'll be the first to admit that I'm new to the self-published, self-marketing idea, so I'm just curious to know what some of the other people do.
Just wondering - have you used paid advertising anywhere? I thought about pay-per-click, but have been advised against that by other authors who have tried it and felt it was a complete waste of money. Have started thinking about other options for paid ads. Thanks!
