Virtual Book Fairs - Do they work?



In answer to my title question - I have no response, as yet.  I am about to embark on the  first virtual book fair that I have ever done, so in a couple of weeks I may have some sort of answer.  

I would say, that it's a phenomenal amount of work... so I hope that there are positive outcomes.  What have you found?  Can you give any tips for getting the most out of this type of event?


As a break from my constant rabbiting on about my new book  (The Love in a Hopeless Place Collection - in case you missed all the hype ;-) ), I am going to be handing over my blog to fellow scribes from around the world and across genres, for the duration of the Blogger Book Fair (BBF) from the 22nd-26th July.

The Blogger Book Fair is a bi-annual event where authors celebrate and showcase each other's work. There are book bargains/freebies/competitions and general literary fun – just like a real book fair but without the travel.

For my own contribution, I have reduced ALL my books to 99c/76p/89€ for the duration of the event.  So, if you need to fill your e-reader for the holidays... now is the time!



Here are the bloggers who will be visiting and showing their wares - and who in return, will be hosting me, on the same dates, on their blogs:

22nd July    Caitlyn Nicholas http://www.caitlynnicholas.blogspot.com
                   Jamie Campbell http://jamiecampbell.com.au/blog/

23rd July     Emily Tippets http://www.emtippetts.com/search/label/Blog

                   Barbara Billig http://www.thenuclearcatastrophe.blogspot.com/

So, here we go - all the fun of the fair... enjoy and hope you enjoy my guests' posts.
