Linked In is good for TONS more than just maintaining your address book of family, friends,
and business contacts.
In fact, it is a great networking tool and you can find people in support groups relevant to
your books or who work in the industry/line-of-business you hope to reach (e.g. therapists,
ministers, etc....) These people can be key decision makers and have access to media
or are prominent bloggers or columnists.
How do I do it???
1. Create your free profile on www.LinkedIn.com be sure to include a good photoalong with your life history
2. Search the groups directory for groups of interest http://www.linkedin.com/groupsDirectory
3. Participate! Post into the group and make contacts
Here's an example, I searched the directory for "abuse survivors"
