Giveaways Announced for the Little Shepherd Virtual Book Tour Oct/Nov/Dec 2010


As I mentioned earlier in the week, I will be offering two giveaways during my virtual book tour with Pump Up Your Book. My virtual book tour will begin on October 4th and run weekdays almost non-stop until December 17th.

Giveaway #1 is for those readers who comment on my blog stops during the tour. One comment per person, per blog, through the length of the tour. Giveaway #2 is for those who purchase a copy of the book between its release date of August 21, 2010 and the end of my virtual book tour on December 17, 2010. Proof of purchase must be submitted to me via email at cg20pm00(at)gmail(dot)com. Please substitute the appropriate symbols for the (at) and (dot). Those are zeroes in the address, not Os. If you prefer to mail or fax a copy of your proof of purchase, please contact me via email for that information.

Additional rules and guidelines can be found at the end of this post.

Hi, Cheryl. Just read the interview on Margot's site. Well done. I must admit I haven't quite got my head wrapped around the idea of virtual book tours. But you are a convincing advocate. Tip of the writer's cap also to Margot for a super interview.
