Let's back up.
I thought introducing my book might be a nice ice-breaker. I'm an unknown writer with no agent, no marketing team, and no pretense. How else does one go about seeking exposure? And I intentionally did not include a link on my intial post feeling that it would come off too pushy. Still, I was cautioned about that, as well. ????
I only felt this might be a cool place to meet others interested in horror, perhaps even another writer/filmmaker. I, myself, enjoy discovering new work by obscure, emerging artists, and would jump at the chance to read/view a newcomer's work.
Did not mean to offend.

I had no intention to attack, only to point things out. We have a multitude of authors that show up and post once. As an author who has been on this forum for years, I find it rude. I'm glad you're actually here to participate. You're one of a vast minority. I think we should be an environment that encourages viewing the work of newcomers. I have three books in print, but am still something of a newcomer to print. But for us to be that kind of environment, we've had to be vigilant about self published authors showing up once to pimp a book then never showing up again.
