Interesting article about how one small British publisher is using social media to promote his strange sounding books.

Social media has been touted as the next big thing in marketing for the last few years. Only natural that it now extends to book promotion as well. Personally, I think it's a great way to connect to a fan base and have a back and forth with them. People will want to support an author more if they feel they've had some input into his decisions.
