51 Ways to Blog as a Novelist
We all know that blogging is one of the best ways to get attention in today's Internet world. A blog is a godsend to your website, bringing it traffic, fans, and more. But you have to post regularly.
Stuck for what to blog about? Here are some tips for novelists, but the same tips can apply to writers of nonfiction, memoirs, children's books, business books, and more.
- Review other novels, especially from other lesser-known novelists.
- Write a blog post using the voice of one of your main characters.
- Have that main character tell some side stories not included in the novel.
- Write about the setting - time and/or place. Use some of the research you did to ensure that your novel was accurate.
- Invite your readers to review your book. Feature their testimonials on your blog.
- Interview some of your readers: via Q&A text or via an Internet radio show or via a teleseminar.
- Podcast your book, one section at a time.
- Write about trends in your genre.
- Write about your favorite novelists, especially those that write in your genre. Include their photos and a sampling of their books.

Hi, I am a novelist and also the host of a virtual TV show on a blog, called The Lit Chick Show (LCS). Lit Chick stands for "literary chick" and not "chick lit". I showcase the work of authors from all over the world and any author from any genre who would like to feature on the show is welcome to contact me. Please check out the show and watch some of the interviews so you get an idea of what kind of formats I use. If you would like to be on the show, contact me and I'll send you the guidelines.

I don't see anything free on your website for authors as far as promotional opportunites. I was expecting a listing of websites, ideas, et cetera. The only thing I saw was your own group Maybe I misunderstood something here.
