Nighttime falls on the Darkwood Tour

June 25th, 2009 · 1 Comment

It is with some sorrow that I say goodbye to the Darkwood tour. I am still not back in form since the death of my father two weeks ago and I feel like I didn’t get the full benefit of the tour. I wanted to interview the author. I believe she’s a professor. I think [...]

Last day on the blog tour for Michelle Knudsen’s The Dragon of Trelian. I’m sorry to say that Technorati’s most popular books page has been broken for a month now. Hmmm. I’m not sure if we’ll even use the link that Technorati counts, on future tours. Meanwhile, here are the latest links: Review: A Christian [...]

May 26th, 2009 · 1 Comment

Savvy Book Tour Wrap-up

April 30th, 2009 · 1 Comment

Savvy Blog Tour ~ Day Two

April 28th, 2009 · Comments Off

First things, first. I have no excuse, Noel warned me that the email Feedburner sent to subscribers last Friday had a bad link in it. I have no idea why I didn’t think it was necessary to send out a follow-up email, warning you to get your links off the site and not out of the email. [...]
