1.) What is a Blog Tour any way?
Many blogs provide commentary or news on a particular subject; others function as more personal online diaries. Many are associated with online newsletters or e-zines. A typical blog combines text, images, and links to other blogs, web pages, and other media related to its topic. As of September 2007, blog search engine Technorati was tracking more than 106 million blogs. That means on any given day there are millions of blog owners who must post fresh and original content on their blog or in their online newsletter.
A Blog Tour is an opportunity for blog owners to host special guests on their blog. This hosting can be carried out in various ways from posting personalized Q&A, to allowing the guest to write a journal entry for the appointed day. Some special guests are asked to respond to reader comments, and others appear in live chat rooms associated with the particular blog. An organized Blog Tour also allows readers to travel from one blog to another with the special guest. When combined with the release of a new book or product, a Blog Tour can introduce an author to countless readers around the world.
2.) We invite you to host Linda Newton as a special guest on your blog, podcast, web site, internet radio show or e-zine during July 13-27, 2009.
Please note that a limited number of blog tour appearances will be available, so schedule your date now.

Twelve Ways to Turn Your Pain Into Praise: Biblical Steps to Wholeness in Christ by Linda Newton (Warner Press)
A Christian counselor brings valuable insight to the emotional and spiritual struggles of abuse victims. Drawing upon her knowledge of Scripture and psychology, Linda Newton points the way out of the wilderness of self-destruction and despair.
Review
In this sensitive account, we are given an insider's view of pastoral counseling by following one woman's journey to healing. In the process, the counselor opens a window into some of her own struggles on the
path to victory. Each chapter begins with Donetta sharing her life of physical and emotional abuse. Pastor and counselor Newton then segues into her view of the situation and describes steps to be taken. A "Truster Reconstructor" homework assignment reinforces the session's insights and helps to bring a new way of thinking into the healing process. --Church Libraries Magazine, Fall 2008
