The continuing saga of this post.
Eh heh heh. So, contrary to the poll, I decided to go with Wordpress instead of Livejournal. I'd been considering LJ up until I remembered the issues I often had with posting lengthy documents, and LJ being a butt about what constituted "too long." It was one of the reasons why I stopped posting fic to my LJ, because why wrestle with wordcounts when you can post a fic that's as long as you want on AO3 or FF.net? And Wordpress hasn't been a jerk about long documents.
Plus, even if I did post the story on LJ, you wouldn't want to follow it. I've decided that I'm going to post the story all at once rather than chapter by chapter. The reason for this is because I want the story posted in order, with the first chapter at the top of the page and the final chapter at the bottom in order to avoid spoilers. So to follow the blog would mean having to put up with quite a bit of spamming.
But when a new episode of the story is posted I will announce it on both my LJ and author's blog.
In other news, I've been frequenting the Support for Indie Authors thread in the Goodreads forum and found a really great thread on marketing your self-published book here. You have to be a member of the thread to comment, but it has some really great input that's gotten me thinking a lot more carefully about how I need to go about marketing my next book.
