On JUNE 2, blogs, websites and MySpace pages all over are joining together to post the first chapter of my new novel, DELIVER US FROM EVELYN. (See a sample entry here.)
If YOU want to take part: By Monday, tell me your NAME, the name of your SITE or BLOG, and the URL so you can be included in the press release.
If this goes over well enough, we could make a regular event of it, promoting a different author every month.
SHE'S THE SHERIFF!
Best Mann For The Job is the new series by Chris and Erica Well. Hosted weekly on TitleTrakk.com, the series stars Grace Mann -- a woman with a complicated past who returns home to Hope Falls, Tenn., to become the small town's new sheriff.

Hey Chris-- I'm trying not to check my email today! But here's my info:

Thanks, Chris!
Thanks! We're now at 27 confirmed participating blogs, site and MySpace pages -
Whoo-hoo!
I'm in. But how do I put the whole first chapter in a blog entry. Will it fit?
Mir
http://mirathon.blogspot.com
Oh, and where do we copy the first chapter from?
Mirtika again
Here is a sample blog entry
http://novelspoilers.blogspot.com/
You should be able to literally copy and paste the whole thing (book cover, links and all) into your own blog. It saves you the trouble of even formatting it.
If you (or anyone else) has trouble doing it this way, email me so I can send it all to you as attachments.
Thanky. I don't think the links will work on copy/pasting. Blogger needs those "a href=" and such doohickeys.
Mir
Blogger works EXACTLY that way for me: Drag your mouse over pictures and text and then copy and past it into your own blog ... and it remembers the links and everything.
(I am speaking of the pic and text in the body; the link in the title is something you have to enter yourself.)
HOWEVER: If you have (or anyone else has) trouble, email me and then I can click "reply" and attach image and text for you.
Hey Chris,
Is it too late for me to get in on this for you?

Not too late - we do this on (or around) June 2, this coming Friday. A couple of participants are going to post early or late, but the "official" day of solidarity is Friday, June 2. I think we're up to like 32 blogs, sites and MySpace pages now.
ok, I've got a Myspace account now so I posted it on my blog there.

As I mentioned in another post, we have a couple of stragglers who might be posting early next week - so if you post over the weekend or Monday or Tuesday, it still counts!
:)
I'd love to be a part; sorry I found out so late, I just found out on T.L. Hines' site!

http://www.kevinlucia.net/kevinskorner.html - this the web version of my review column for The Baptist Voice, a moderately sized Christian Newspaper in the Binghamton, NY area. If you ever have any spare ARC's handy, just drop me an email, and I'll be happy to review them for you.
Found out about this from ^Kevin on the Emerging Christian Writers (http://mikelovdal.com/phpBB/index.php - though it will be moving soon) message board.
I've posted it on my review blog: http://wrenreviews.blogspot.com
