With 9 years left, I'd:
1) Advertise them on Sedo/namebox/etc
2) Put up a "For sale" page along with a way to contact you
You've pre-paid for 9 years - so there's no rush. I'm a fan of putting a price on the page as well - a high price. Putting up a high price lets prospective buyers know that you are serious, even if you don't expect to sell the domain name for anything close to that. Anyone serious about buying the domain will ignore your price anyway and offer a low figure - at least then you have negotiation reference points (high and low). That said, some domainers say not to list a price and make the buyer submit an offer.
