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 Tracy Ramos as a special guest on your blog, podcast, web site, internet radio show or e-zine during January 11-25, 2010.
Please note that a limited number of blog tour appearances will be available, so schedule your date now.
3.) What is the book about?
Letters to Darcy by Tracy Ramos (Tyndale House Publishers)
Letters to Darcy originated as a blog, written by a y
oung woman from Texas named Tracy Ramos. The blog was comprised of a series of diary entries that Tracy wrote to her unborn daughter, Darcy, over the course of approximately nine months. Early in her pregnancy, Tracy learned Darcy had a rare, terminal genetic condition known as Trisomy 18. Of people diagnosed with this disorder, about 95% die in utero, and for surviving infants who live to term, less than 10% survive their first year of life. Tracy’s response to her unborn daughter Darcy is an incredible testament to the sanctity of human life. You will walk with Tracy and Darcy through each entry and see how lovingly mom Tracy cares for her unborn child. Through her simple, honest, and intensely personal entries, Tracy beautifully and convincingly answers the question: When does life begin?
