[Linking Up] Feature and Follow #32





Share something you’ve learned about book blogging or just blogging in general in the last month.

In the last month, I've been tasked to arrange blog tours for a couple of independent Filipino authors. I had to be the middleman between authors and bloggers, and I learned that being an author doesn't end when you publish a book. You also need to market those books, and bloggers help a lot through blog tours.

  3. How cool - I've been so curious about how all the blog tour setup works (I'm a super newbie). I'm a fairly new follower to your blog, but if you haven't already you should totally do a post (or two) about your experience and how the process works. I bet (hope lol) I'm not the only one totally in the dark on it.

    Happy reading!
