Authors: get on Booktour.com

For any In The Flesh readers or other published authors, I recommend checking out Booktour.com, a new site that I'm using to promote my upcoming readings. And if you sign up with this URL, you'll help me out as part of a contest they're having for referrers. Why do I like it? It's like an Upcoming, but for books. It's new, and they're quickly adding features. I emailed and asked if they'd add an erotica category, and lo and behold, a few days later they did! It's free, easy to use, and for readers, it's great - they send you an email every week telling you who's reading in your city. And it's co-run by Kevin Smokler, editor of the anthology Bookmark Now, who has pioneered the virtual book tour and clearly knows what he's doing. So sign up at Booktour.com today! (I also heartily recommend listing your events on Upcoming.org, Craigslist, Mediabistro, and in your local websites and newspapers. I try my best to poll In The Flesh readers on how they heard about it, and they come from all over, so every little bit helps.
