I subscribe to a fantastic site called WOW! – Women on Writing. According to its site, WOW!’s mission is “to support women’s creativity, energy, blood, sweat and tears, throughout all stages of the writing process.”
It’s a great resource for writers and authors covering everything from writing techniques and self-publishing tips to networking with an online community of other writers. Their vision is to create “a favorite watering hole for professionals, the up-and-coming, and the recipients of our labors–the avid readers.”
WOW! Also offers a blog tour to authors as a means of promoting your book to its extensive blogger network. The blog tour includes:
- 12 – 15 stops on highly trafficked blogs customized to your book
- An interview on WOW!’s own blog “The Muffin.”
- An email announcement in WOW!’s Events Newsletters (21,000 subscribers)
- Excellent Customer Service. My experience this far with Jodi Webb has been amazing.
What follows is a partial schedule for my own blog tour kicking off with my WOW! Interview on “The Muffin”* on November 14. Stop by today and visit.* Several of the blogs are running contests you can win a free copy of Any Color but Beige.
*I’m posting this from Munich, somewhat in advance of the post due to time zones, so it may take a couple of hours for the Post to appear on today’s Muffin. Overseas reader please check back later today to see it.
