I finished my first Twine game yesterday (A Fire Darkly: Chapter 1), and would like to list it on various IF databases, so that people can find it.
I know about IFDB, but that's it. Can anyone help me out -- what other websites (or blogs) are there where one can list their IF game? What about any other ways to spread the word?
Also, somewhat related -- how does one submit a game for consideration to the XYZZY Awards?

You can also make an app version of the game for mobile distribution if that's something you're into.
EDIT: I knew I'd seen an intfiction.org post about this topic as well, and managed to find it here. It provides some info on how to publish for various IF platforms.
Just a note that "Inky Path" listed there is now defunct, but you can submit your work to sub-Q for paid publishing if you're interested--I was/am a part of both so hit me up if you have any questions about that.
Best of luck on your first release!
Yeah, the game is hosted on my website, so I was talking more about places where I can link to it, or IF review blogs I can ask to review it, rather than places like itch.io that require uploading it to their site.
