I n s e c u r e - I was certainly feeling insecure when I attached my first Blog Hop Linky to a recent post!

To update those who don't visit every day, I posted a cover art reveal over the weekend for my second book in the Protector Series.

Don't get me wrong, many people have left wonderful comments and I am thankful to everyone who has. No I am talking about the 'feeling'!  The feeling you get just before you open the web page to see if anyone has joined the link.

I decided to take the plunge and ask for help with the release in October....

And I have never felt so vulnerable in my life.  Every day I have opened the post to find a blank Blog Hop Linky and my insecurity was overwhelming. 

It really is a hard thing to do. I bet some of you will remember the first time you ventured in this direction with a Linky and have experienced the 'feeling' for yourself, others have  probably forgotten that 'feeling', (lucky them!)

Today when I opened the post I actually had two names added to the link and I don't feel so vulnerable anymore! 

A big thanks to those special two and if I have tempted you to join, here is the link.

It's early days yet and lots of people are glued to the Olympics, on vacation, involved with various blog challenges etc. But they will come through... just wait and see!

Kyra Lennon said...

Aw, I didn't see your post but I've signed up now! The best time - in my experience - to post a Linky Link for an event is on a Monday, when everyone is fresh from the weekend and ready to blog again! :D

Ciara said...

C.M. ~ I don't usually blog on weekends so I'm glad you mentioned it here. I'm off to join your link. :) I'm thinking about doing a linky for my upcoming release, but so scared to put that up on my blog. You are brave, and as it gets closer, mention it again. Off to join. :)

Unknown said...

Thanks for the support Michelle. I am starting to feel better!

Unknown said...

Thanks for this advice Kyra, I will keep it in mind for next time. It is a learn as you go process with each step! Thanks for signing up!

Unknown said...

Thanks Ciara, it definitely is a scary process!

Damyanti Biswas said...

Signed up on your list. Need anything else that I can help with, let me know.

Tonja said...

I signed up. It's a very good day to post about it. I know exactly that feeling of vulnerability. It's like throwing a party and no one shows up.

Julie Flanders said...

Oh, I admire you for doing this! I haven't done anything like this before and I know my insecurity would be through the roof if I tried. Kudos to you for taking this step, I'm off to add my link to your list! :)

Cherie Reich said...

It's always scary to put up one of those linky lists and just wait for the first person to sign up. After that, it seems much easier. Keep mentioning it. That way if people missed it the first time, then they'll eventually know about it. :)

M.J. Fifield said...

I didn't see that post before but I am signed up now. I've never done a blog hop linky thing but I can just imagine the feeling you're talking about.

Alex J. Cavanaugh said...

Did I miss that post????

Unknown said...

Thank you so much, it is very nice of you to offer.

Unknown said...

I've been there and done that before too!

Unknown said...

Thanks Julie!

Unknown said...

Thanks so much for the support Cherie and the advice.

Unknown said...

Thanks M.J.

Unknown said...

You left a very supportive comment pledging support for October and that was definitely fine Alex, don't feel guilty!

Jennie Bennett said...

If I wasn't having a baby I would totally join, but I understand that feeling. It's happened to me more than once!

Gwen Gardner said...

Awwww, let me go find that blog hop button! I'm sure the word will get out and it will be a success:)

Krista McLaughlin said...

I missed it too! I'd love to help! :)

Anonymous said...

I just signed up for your Blog Hop. I'll post something in my side bar as the date approaches and make you Author of the Week. Good luck to you and He Came For Me!

Unknown said...

I haven't put up a Linky yet, and I'm petrified of that, too.

Colleen said...

I totally missed it the first time!!! I think you should post about it at least a couple more times because posts do get buried in blog rolls. I'm psyched to help spread the word about your beautiful book!

Unknown said...

What a special moment for you, all the best with your bundle of joy to come!

Unknown said...

Thanks Gwen!

Unknown said...

Thank you Krista.

Unknown said...

Thanks Stephen, you are the best!

Unknown said...

Yes, it is a really scary experience, but I am feeling better now!

Unknown said...

Thanks for the support Colleen and I will follow your great advice!

L. Diane Wolfe said...

I'll help you!

Unknown said...

Thank you L. greatly appreciated!
