My apologies if this topic has already been posted -- I'm finally emerging from my holiday malaise and getting back in the swing of things 
As the industry continues to change at the speed of light, what did you do in 2012 that you'll never do again and what will you try in 2013 that maybe you've been scared to do up to now or just found out about and thought it was a cool idea? It could be marketing, trying a new genre, establishing a new writing routine, etc.
For myself, I will keep writing. Since I'm new to the game, it is extremely important to me that I build my backlist. For a long time, I let life get in the way of writing, so I personally feel like I'm a bit behind the 8-ball because I didn't make it a priority for so many years.
From a more tactical standpoint, I did a free promo through KDP Select five days straight which went pretty well. At this juncture, I'd do KDP Select again, but would break up my free days.
What about you? What will you do differently in 2013?
