World of Ink Tour - Day 8

Well, today is definitely a great day. Little Shepherd received two amazing reviews.


I started out the morning at One Zillion Books, where Jason and his kids gave the book a double thumbs up and a 9 out of 10 ranking. You can read this review at http://www.onezillionbooks.com/2011/01/little-shepherd.html.

You have a chance to win a free copy of Little Shepherd from One Zillion Books, so make sure you fill out the entry form before January 25th.


Then I returned to the SFC Blog: Families Matter, where Irene said the book would be a, "...wonderful addition to every family's library." You can read her full review at http://familiesmatter2us.blogspot.com/2011/01/book-review-little-shepherd.html

I also happened to run into a woman at the school library where we both volunteer. She had purchased two copies of Little Shepherd right after Christmas for her children. She told me they both loved them. Then her son popped into the library to renew a book and I was introduced to him. He thought it was cool to meet the author of a book, so I had my five seconds of fame.

Thanks to everyone for their support. It is greatly appreciated.

World of Ink Blog Tour - Days 6 and 7


Over the weekend I stopped off at a neat children's writers blog that I didn't even know about until my World of Ink VBT. On Sunday, I visited Utah Children's Writers. They featured my article titled, "The Two Most Powerful Words."

Want to know what those words are? Check out my post at http://utahchildrenswriters.blogspot.com/2011/01/two-most-powerful-words.html


Today there is a nice spotlight at Book Marketing: The Authors Marketing Powerhouse. You can find it at http://www.theauthorsmarketingpowerhouse.com/profiles/blogs/author-spotlightcheryl

This was a late addition, as my stop at One Zillion Books was moved out to tomorrow. This will be a review and a chance to win a free copy of Little Shepherd! My book will also be reviewed tomorrow at SFC Blog: Families Matter.

I hope you are enjoying this tour. Keep your eye out for more chances to win free books!

World of Ink Virtual Book Tour - Day 5


The LITTLE SHEPHERD WORLD OF INK VIRTUAL BOOK TOUR stops today at The Writing Mama, a neat blog by children's author, VS Grenier. VS is one of my former clients and a good friend. I am thrilled to be stopping off at her blog.

I get some of my sillies out with my post titled, " The Juggler -- The World's Next Superhero!" While I'm a bit zany, we're discussing the serious topic of time management, something every writer needs to address.

I hope you'll stop by at http://thewritingmama.blogspot.com/2011/01/worlds-next-superhero.html and leave a comment or question. As you might know, I am a regular contributor for Writer2Writer in the areas of time management and organization. I've also held two workshops at writers conferences on these topics, so perhaps my ideas can be helpful to you.

Thanks for your continued support!
