A few quick updates before we begin …
- Giving away an autographed copy of The Dressmaker’s Secret on Goodreads.
- Actually making progress on Ivy Introspective! π
- I’ve chosen some titles for The Chronicles of Alice and Ivy, Book 4. Vote here!
- Still looking for beta-readers for The Lady of the Vineyard.
Well, guys, it’s time to start setting up the blog tour for the release of The Lady of the Vineyard! The sign-up form is here for those of you who’d be willing to post a book review, author interview, character interview, book spotlight, or giveaway on their blog on any date starting September the 8thΒ through theΒ 12th.
FAQ
- What is a blog tour?
It’s just like when an author goes from town to town, stopping at bookstores and spreading the word about his/her newly-published novel, only this time it’s virtual! π
- Do I need a blog to participate?
Um … I’m afraid I’m going to have a say a definite “yes” about that one. However, for a limited time only, I’m letting people read TLOTV in exchange for critiquing, so if you want to read it … in its not-quite-as-polished-as-it-will-be form … π
- Did you really need to even post that last question?
What? People might have asked …
- Do I need an email?
No. You don’t. I’d REALLY prefer to contact you over email, but it’s perfectly ok if your parents (or just you!) are comfortable with you giving out your email. We can contact over Goodreads or NaNoWriMo (Adult, Camp, or YWP). Click here to find out more.
- Is that (up there) the cover you’re going to be using for TLOTV?
No, it’s notΒ … that’s my WIP coverΒ I’m actually holding a cover contest on YWP NaNoWriMo to determine which cover I’ll be using.
Any further questions can be asked in the comments. π

Yay! I;m so excited! I signed up π
Awesome! π
I would love to host a blog tour! What do I need to do?
Well, if you were to participate in the blog tour, you’d be able to sign up using that form. Basically you’d choose a day to post something on your blog related to The Lady of the Vineyard … a review or character interview or just a book spotlight. We could contact over email or NaNo to set it all up.
Oops! I must’ve overlooked that part about the beginning! I’ll go fill out the form right now. π
I filled it out! π I’d prefer to do an author interview with you the most. π I’m not exactly sure what day I’ll be able to post because my writing camp will be in September, but I’ll let you know!
Ok, great! π
Would you prefer doing it through NaNo or email? How soon do you want to do it?
I’ll probably be sending out all the information in a week or two. Either works for me. Email would be preferred. π
Sounds good! Email is fine with me!
Ooh, maybe I should do this; it sounds like fun! What’s a book spotlight, though?
It’s just basically telling people about the book.
Ah, okay, thanks. *debates whether to sign up or not*
That would be amazing! π But, you know, no pressure. π
I think I will…it’ll be fun!
Sure! π I will have to break my weekend posting rule, though ……..
Hehe, well, this is important.
I signed up! π
If you still need a beta reader …. I’m open! π
Yay! π
I voted for the title of Book Four . . . I can’t believe that one of my titles was selected! I didn’t vote for it, though! π
I’m open to doing a book review and author interview of TLOTV, if you want. Just contact me by email!
Hi Kellyn!
I’d really love to beta read ‘The Lady Of The Vineyard’… I’d also enjoy to do the blog tour with you! I am going to email you. π
Ok, I just saw your email! I’ll reply ASAP! π
