I can't drink anything hot except chocolate milk lol.

I'm writing out my questions to Alexis now..going over her site for some ideas of what to ask...oh my goodness!

Groovy, I'm seeing your cover and it's caught my eye. I'm so going to have to check this new release out! ;)

R.L. wrote: "Articles for the rounds shouldn't be published until Monday guys. One author Monday the other on Thursday. I apologize as this wasn't spelled out before but I will clarify this on the signup form. ..."

So we need to post one interview Monday, and the other on Thursday, correct? Just want to be sure . . .

You can stick with that schedule but I had added that you can schedule how you want based on what other activities you already do on your blog

Is Julie around? I can't find any questions to answer in my email. I think I'm all set otherwise.

Got them thank you. I've sent you two emails one with the answers and one with the links because I have zero memory!

Hi everyone! I have a question. Only people with blogs can participate, correct?

I have a question are we only supposed to be sending questions to one person at a time because I haven't gotten my questions from Julie yet and I was just curious

Hi Peri, you can use your blog here on Goodreads if you don't have one on another site.
Ember, you should have had two, maybe email Julie and ask her about it?

What Kay said lol

Ok thanks!

Thank you Kay and R.L. Just signed up.

Thanks Brittany!

Thanks Brittney!! <3

Okay, just finished posting Alexis and Amy's interviews on all of my forums. Besides the exposure, I hope everyone is getting a lot of sales on the entire Blog-Go-Round:)

Good interviews, everyone!!

Y'all won't believe what someone did. A fellow friend and author on another forum shared the interviews on his FB so they could get more exposure. I thought that was so thoughtful of him.

Thanks, Nik:)

You've been busy, Groovy, thank you! I will be promoting yours starting this Wednesday since I'm focusing on R.L's today and tomorrow.

I gotta say- my sales were better last week when we did the Blog go round- so I'm going with they helped with sales. I hope you're all seeing the same results.

Thanks, Alexis. You did such a great job. My daughter loves it:)

Awesome Groovy and yes Carole I agree. The sales were better hopefully there's a turn around. Also thinking of doing something where everyone who wants to do a blog round each week can by splitting into specific groups so there's isn't a lot of double interviews or confusion going on

Thanks everyone for being so awesome! Here is my interview with Justin- http://kaymacleodbooks.com/interview-...

I'm not expecting any sales either, that's me managing my expectations not me being negative. My blog which only ever got 20 ish view per post got 63 for my interview with Cecily. So that's a vast improvement.

I think I've shared everything everywhere. Although I can't figure out how to share the GR blogs to FB onto my page posting as Amy not the real me. (Not sure it really matters, not exactly famous lol)

Kay's interview on my blog here on Goodreads:

Ember your interview has gotten a TON of views today! Woohoo

Traffic to my blog quadrupled in 24 hours from 20ish views. Cecily's interview has been viewed over 80 times now on blogger and 50 here.

It's probably automatic bot thingies!

My FB post with the link to Julie's interview with me got viewed 129 times. Now that has to be because I put her FB @username thing in the post. I'm sure I'm only known by about 12 people! I've done a social media course and I'm still basically none the wiser.

That's our Blog go round hard at work- It's all about growing slowly- Keep up the momentum.

Alex wrote: "I look forward to the day when I get triple digits on a blog post."

I'd just like to be convinced that it's being viewed by humans and not automatic widgetbotsthingamies

I got hold of google analytics a while back. It flew completely over my head so I haven't used it. But I imagine that's one of the only ways to know for sure what's going on. Even then, just viewing a page isn't the same as reading it.

In a parallel universe I have an editor and a promotion guru and a cover graphics person and all of those things that money can buy if you have money. In the real world, I'm doing my best with what I've got, step by step, so I don't give myself a system overload. The blog go round is such a great idea.

Alex wrote: "I'm in the same position as you pretty much. I've used up all my spare money getting a couple of top quality covers, nothing left for promotion now so I'm searching for zero cost options. "

Your covers are really good though. I did mine myself using a jpg off Pixabay that I donated about £3 for! And the one I used before that was even...don't even go there. I'm going to win the lottery this week so it'll be fine.
