It's very hard to believe, but it's almost time to start scheduling my guest authors and bloggers for the first part of 2012.
If you have a book scheduled for release early next year, and if you want to promote that book on my blog as a single post or part of a blog book tour, contact me as soon as you have a firm publication date. Mondays and Thursdays will be open to guests.
I want to focus more on the mystery/suspense/thriller genre, including YA and Middle Grade mysteries, but women's fiction, fantasy/sci fi, some horror and paranormal novels, and other genres interest me as well. Since I read all kinds of fiction and non-fiction, it's very hard for me to exclude most writers.
Authors of erotica and graphic gore might want to skip me, however. I'm inclined to avoid novelists I wouldn't recommend to my mom or my 13-year-old grandniece. I'm just sayin'.
A link to my e-mail address is included in my blogger profile, or you can leave a comment below along with your contact information.

Pat - Thanks for generously opening your blog to guests. Much appreciated!
Nice of you to do all this hosting. I wish I had a book ready for press - so far behing on my own WIP's because of all the editing I'm doing for other authors lately. But will keep you in mind, of course, when I do get my next book finished and pub'd.

I love my guests, Margot. It's a great way to make new friends as well as find new books to read.
Hi Marvin. It's always something, isn't it? I can find so many ways to interfere with my own writing goals...so far, however, making money hasn't been one of them. :)
You were gracious enough to host me for my first book, and I appreciate that!
For the next one, could you reserve a tiny portion of your post on February 28 for a shout-out? That would be awesome!
Hi Alex -- I e-mailed you about the dates. And you don't have to restrict yourself to a shout-out on my blog. You're welcome to a whole guest post if you want.
You're amazing, Patricia. Unfortunately, I have nothing published yet that deserves to be promoted, so I hope that you find some awesome authors to showcase to the world!
Oh I wish I was ready for this offer!!! Someday...Someday.
I can't wait to see who makes it on the list! I love meeting new authors on your site.
Hi Pat:
Please, please pick me. My urban fairytale novel CURSES! A F**Ked-Up Fairytale will be released on March 1, 2012. I would love, love, love to be a guest on your blog, and I swear, even though the title might not suggest it, it's not full of swear words at all. :)
Thanks!
Marlena and Dean, I'll be ready when you are.
Laura, it's fun for me too. Writers are amazing, fun people (even the ones who are introverts).
J.A. -- I'm waving my magic wand and poof!, you're on the schedule. I'll e-mail you with the particulars.
Patricia, I would love to do a guest post on your blog.
I plan on releasing my next book in November, but I actually prefer to wait on doing a book tour (since my books are not commercially published, and therefore don't have a "launch week" expiration date). I was planning on doing some sort of blog tour in January or February. Would you be interested?
Hi Camille -- Absolutely yes, and I've e-mailed you with additional information. I'll be looking forward to working with you.
