Finally! A little relief.

Well, everyone finally feels better enough to go to school and things are beginning settle down here. I got "Rough Seas" back from Dayna Hart and have a few ideas on how to make it better. There were a lot of awkward places and now I see how to smooth them out.
Now, onto a subject for my blog today. I've seen lately that many authors, published and unpublished, have been in a conundrum. Many of us are members of many groups, blogs, and chats. I, myself, am a contributor to a new blog "Shadows of Passion", moderator for Sweet Romantic Notions, reviewer for Romance Divas and members of other Yahoo Groups as well. Once published, authors blog for their publishers' blog, guest blog in other places and chat sometimes several times a week. This is promotional responsibilty that we all know is important. I won't even talk about the black hole, MySpace. That place has eaten up more of my time and not all of it was very productive. (It was fun though).
The conundrum is where do we focus our energy? Keeping our blogs fresh, ideas flowing and energy high is difficult enough without dispersing it all over the place. Personally, I try and participate in Romance Divas (since it's been the most help for me). I love blogs. Yahoo groups confuse me. (That's just me).
So, my Question of the Day? Where do you focus your energy? If you're promoting your talent, where do you go? With all the choices out there, how do you choose?
