A number of books I bought this year were referred by authors I trust on social media. And not in a book promotion way but a congrats way that only fans can post and mean it. Sorry social media is not bringing in much for you. Keep at that dream agent for your series though. Good luck. Congrats to Bish on her upcoming book. I've added it to my wishlist.
