OW Press author, Caleb J Ross is undertaking a blog tour in support of the chapbook, Charactered Pieces: stories. From the announcement at his site:
Tune up your virtual groupie van. I’m hitting the wwwD.O.T for a blog tour to promote Charactered Pieces: stories.
Blog Orgy Tour oh9-ohohoh10
promises to be a beautiful bastardization of legitimate blog posts and self-serving salesy talk, the likes of which will leave you itchy and raw.
What is a blog tour? It’s a way for authors with no actual-tour budget to use the term “tour” when describing their marketing plans.
Why a blog tour? The concept seems fun. I’m going to make stops at various personal and writing-related blogs, offering posts about Charactered Pieces, about me, and about writing in general, that will both promote my chapbook and honor the integrity of each blog I visit. These aren’t gimmicky advertisements. They are cleverly disguised advertisements.
Where are the tour stops? Great question, hypothetical reader. [...] visit the dedicated Blog Orgy Tour page for all the stops. Also, as a bonus for die-hard groupies, some guest posts will contain notes regarding specific stories from Charactered Pieces. There are seven stories (eight if you count the acknowledgments, which is written in a story-like way), so there are seven author notes to track. A full list appears at the bottom of the dedicated page.
So get out there and leave your mark in the tour bus exhaust. Comment on the posts, let people know that conversation about books thrives.
