Give me some guidance here, /lit/.
I just published a poetry collection on Smashwords. I can't find anything good on book promotion because Google only shows corporate garbage advice from shitty blogs that are advertising their own books.
Is there any good way to advertise my work without looking/being too jewey?

offer it for free
Holding back, or trying to cultivate a mysterious or even remotely self-aware image is the wrong thing to do in today's world. Do everything you possibly can to draw attention to yourself, I'm serious. Advertisement is everything, unfortunately.

it's name your own price

to what extent though? shilling on forums is too depth-groveler imo. i've read that launching a bunch of social media pages works to a degree.

That's what I'd do. Spend a day making fake social media accounts, spam friend requests, make pages about your writing--Upsell the shit out of yourself.

does it work well? people actually buy your book based on following then reading your spam trail?
