Scheduling guest bloggers
If you look in my right sidebar, you’ll see a list of guest bloggers for 2012. You’ll also see I have a lot of openings for guests from July until the end of the year.
Since I love to use these guest spots to promote an author’s recent or upcoming book release, I’m issuing a special invitation to those who have a new book coming out in 2012. If you’d like more information, you can e-mail me through the link at the About Me page. I’ll be glad to send you my basic guest blogger guidelines and schedule you for a guest appearance.
What I’m reading
Now that I’ve made a little more time for reading in my life, I’ve been hustling through a nice stack of books. I finished Duma Key by Stephen King, Ken Harmon’s Ghost Under Foot: The Spirit of Mary Bell (nonfiction), and Wave Me Good-Bye by Teresa Funke (MG story of World War II set in New York City’s Bronx). Now I’m finally reading Tallgrass by Sandra Dallas, a novel I purchased back when Sandra was doing her book tour about 2008. I really am so far behind. It feels good to have reading time set aside again.

I have my rights back. My cover art is ready. Now I just need to get that file formatted and uploaded to the two e-book sites. Soon, very soon.

If any of your guests need another blog stop they can always visit one of mine to. You can help set up tours for them.

Hi Angela — it’s nice to finally have a little time to read again. It took a log of To Do List juggling to get here.
Alex — There really is a lot going on these days. But today is going to be all about yard work. I heading outside now.
Nutschell — Inviting guests is one of the ways I discover great new books to read, especially from debut authors.
