I'm just curious as how everyone else promotes their work? I have found another website, called Fan Story which allows you to publish your work and allow others to review. It has been a really great tool for me to help me refine weak areas of what I wrote last year.

What else does everyone else use?

I don't really share unpublished work in large quantities, but I do have a group of writer friends - some published - who I give work to, to read and critique, usually after I'm done.

For me, it's through my friends and fictionpress.com
It's a large database of original stories, poems, etc. It's really helped me a lot to develop and grow as a writer since people leave reviews and can follow you as you write and update.

I have also used fictionpress in the past. Mostly, though, it is only through people I know. I am still in college getting a creative writing degree, so let us hope that I am able to be more proactive in the future in order to, I don't know, make a living.

Once one has copywrited a work, it is "safer" to share with online sites and such.

Did you know that to copywrite your work of literature, it is $35, and you can submit it online? (See the fees here: http://www.copyright.gov/docs/fees.html )
