Inkubate

This is a new site and I'm recommending that authors get in while it's in it's beginning stages. Purpose: To bring Authors together with Agents and Publishers. Functionality: User friendly. Great way for an author to "showcase" their work and and for agents and publishers to scout for new talent. (I have it on good word that the site owner has already found some interested publishers that will be joining up) Design: Very clean, and CLEVER! Plus I love the name INKubate.It's suggests you "incubate" on the site (because "it's better here"). The play on words INK (for writing/books) instead of INC ubate is pretty neat. They really pulled the idea together nicely. Mark my words, this is going to go well. The site set up and design itself shows that that the site owner is forward thinking and good with marketing--exactly what these types of sites need to succeed. And should the site succeed, I believe authors on the site may as well also. Check it out!

I took a ScoreIt class from Inkubate through Barnes & Noble. I paid to compare three of my books to other writers. I did everything Inkubate recommended and saw no uptick in sales. They offer a free 30 minute phone consultation to anyone who takes the class. I emailed them 3 times for my free consultation. I heard nothing from them. These guys talk a good talk but that's all it is. Save your money!
