Mental Pause - Blog Tour Stops

We're in the final count down to launch for my novel Mental Pause on the 8th and not only is it International Women's Day, it's also my mother-in-law Ruth's birthday. I'm so excited I can hardly breath.

I invite you to visit the blogs that are reviewing the book on launch day and the rest of the month, and also doing author interviews and hosting guest blogs by yours truly. Launch day stops on the blog tour include:

Adventures in Expatland, Review and Interview

Author Interviews with Jo Parfitt

Book Readers Heaven - Review and Interview

Ravenous Reader - Review

Check out an earlier posting on Mental Pause - The Blog for the full schedule. I'll post reminders and links each day of the tour. I'll be posting the Amazon links on the 8th. If you're planning to buy a copy make sure you do it on launch day as I will be donating part of the proceeds from book sales to Room to Read, a charity that builds libraries and schools, publishes local language children's books and supports girls scholarships in developing countries. The organization believes that literacy is the key to breaking the cycle of poverty and I do too!

Once the dust clears I'll be posting a long list of 'lessons learned during the self-publishing process' so stay tuned and...
 
Happy Writing!
