Well done to you and Jenny for all your organisation of this. And yes, I did enjoy doing my book tour and will be back there myself with my next novel later this year!Jo-Anne Berthelsenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09775045057529728396noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4620199782689299940.post-50973779607100248622013-03-08T01:10:42.283-08:002013-03-08T01:10:42.283-08:00Jo, Thanks for your comments.

As I read more about your book I could have kicked myself! So I asked you for an interview and what fun that was.(http://ow.ly/iyp71) The fabulous thing about the ACRBA is that they supply the code for copy/paste to your website or blog. All it needs is you to add a short review. If you aren't able to do it as in my case, you still post the code and it produces a lovely page about the book.<br /><br />We really need some more readers of non-fiction though--so come on folks. Surely you don't ONLY read fiction? :-) Shirley Corderhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04429641202607657089noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4620199782689299940.post-35006787534999596522013-03-07T21:06:44.040-08:002013-03-07T21:06:44.040-08:00Hi Rita, You'll be happy to know ACRBA members...Hi Rita, You'll be happy to know ACRBA members are not required to read and review every book and the minimum requirement is one book every 3 months. The membership rules are listed on the Requirements page on the ACRBA blog. We tour a combination of fiction, non-fiction and children's books. Members can pick and choose the books they'd like to request for review. Some members only review fiction, others prefer non-fiction, children's or a combination of genres.

Like you ...Oh, so glad the blog tour did well, JO!<br /><br />Like you once were, I still can't quite get the hang of what is involved in a blog tour. I guess the best way to find out is to jump in and learn on the way. <br /><br />I think the idea of having to read then review every book involved concerned me as I don't know how I'd fit it in. I also have to co-write scripts for weekly radio programs plus a weekly blog and am stretched just doing that.Rita Galiehhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14586506137798711397noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4620199782689299940.post-33003209523540003482013-03-07T20:26:37.710-08:002013-03-07T20:26:37.710-08:00Hi Jo-Anne, thanks for sharing your experiences wi...Hi Jo-Anne, thanks for sharing your experiences with your ACRBA book tour.

Sometimes when I'm tired, I feel I have had enough of those new opportunities (!) but it's a matter, I believe, of listening to God and taking courage when God wants us to step out yet again.
