WEEK #411
(One Question.)
Miki asks: What kind of book tour do you like? one with several snippet along the tours? behind the scene blog post or review only or something else??
I used to participate in more tours and I always liked to do reviews and a Giveaway. I don't find cover reveals so interesting - that's just me. I don't mind a short excerpt but I'm not crazy about long ones. I also enjoy shorter interviews or author's posts.

Thanks to those who are sending in Questions. DON'T BE SHY! Surely everyone has a Q or two you'd like to ask. Input suggestions in this Suggested Question Form. At the end of each month, I draw from the suggestions I used during the month and that person will get a 1/2 book choice or $2.50 towards GC. I thank everyone for submitting questions. Thanks for sending in questions! The supply of questions is dwindling so share some if you think of any -- even if they are duplicates I'll weed through or try to modify them.
The comments in December were provided by Nikki and Miki who get  $2.50 credit.

  1. Congrats, Rita!

    Since I don't read excerpts and cover reveals do nothing for me, the only thing that is somewhat interesting is a story behind the book.

  2. Snippets and anything that relates to the characters in the book or it's setting

    When I post a book tour, the feature usually includes an excerpt so the reader can get a feel of the book and a giveaway.
