Isn’t this a beautiful award? Joyce Anthony over at:
http://joyceanthony.tripod.com/blog
nominated me for it. This is a pay-it-forward award and my instructions were to now choose some blogs I find worthy of this award. The choice wasn’t easy, but I have finally narrowed it down to the following. These are in no particular order; that would be impossible to do.
Joyce Anthony – http://joyceanthony.tripod.com/blog – I know she nominated me, but Joyce is always willing to work with me and to help the authors that I work with each month. She puts together an event on her blog which is a part of my tours. Her help is wonderful and very appreciated. I hope that I’ve been able to introduce her to some interesting new people.
Yvonne Perry – www.yvonneperry.blogspot.com – I met Yvonne as I was coordinating my very first blog tour- it was for her. We worked together and got to be friends and when I started doing more tours, she was one of the people I contact about upcoming tours. She’s hosted a number of people for me, on her blog and in her newsletter. Its been great getting to know her even more as we;ve worked together on various projects and she offers a wealth of info for writers and others on her blog.
Kathleen Gage - www.themarketingmindset.com – I heard of Kathleen long before I actually got to talk with her. She shares a wealth of information for authors, speakers and others on her blog and she hosts a number of authors for me on her blogs as well. Kathleen and her blog are both wonderful resources that should not be overlooked and she is one of the nicest and most caring people that I know.
Dyan Garris – http://blog.voiceoftheangels.com – I met Dyan early in 2008 and we’ve worked together for a while. During this time I’ve come to know her as a person who truly wants to help others. She wants to share the information she has that can help other people improve the quality of their lives. She shares plenty of great information on her blog and her website. She has also become a friend and someone who has words of wisdom and comfort at the right time.
Carolyn Howard Johnson – www.TheNewBookReview.blogspot.com – Carolyn created a review blog where she is willing to post reviews for all sorts of authors, not just big name authors, but even the lesser known authors. Her instructions are very clear and it is very easy to take advantage of her offer. She has hosted a number of authors for me on their tours and her assistance is certainly appreciated.
Philip Harris - http://philipharris.blogspot.com – Phil Harris has been a good friend and he has hosted a number of authors for me. There are a number of topics that he is very knowledgeable about and those are great opportunities for him to host an author and to ask very targeted questions. He has a knack for getting to the heart of a topic and asking great questions. This has been helpful on a number of tours and I think he’s also made some friends along the way.
I’m sure there are others that I’ve forgotten and I am sorry. I’ve also discovered some new blogs that are going to be very good for the authors to work with me. More great resources to come in the near future.
