Marilyn's Musings

I'm just finishing up my latest blog tour for No Sanctuary. This is the third tour I've been on arranged through PumpUpYourPromotions.com. It's a lot or work, even when I don't have to find the blogs to visit myself. Each of the blog hosts has their own ideas for what you should do for them: might be an interview or a set bunch of questions to answer, an interview of one of your characters, writing tips, or any variety of tasks. Most will want a copy of the book so they can put a review on their site. Because I've always wanted a book trailer, I've paid extra for that. This time the trailer was superior. It was obvious that Cheryl Maladrinos, my tour guide and the one made the trailer, had read the book. It's terrific and available on U-Tube under No Sanctuary and also on my website: http://fictionforyou.com Do blog tours help? My number always go down on Amazon when I'm on a tour (that's a good thing) as a book begins with a number in the millions...

Have to promote my stops on my blog tour--and once again I'm visiting http://theplotline.wordpress.com/. If you get a chance please stop by and leave a comment. This blog tour has been great, put on by Pump Up Your Promotions, and the tour guide is Cheryl Maladrinos who has been terrific about getting me hosted here and there--she's also responsible for the video. I also have laundry to do because of being gone and a galley proof waiting to be checked. A huge box of books for me to review arrived while we were gone, so needless to say, I'll be busy. Feel like I have a job--guess I do. Marilyn http://fictionforyou.com
