How the Blog Tour Went
Feb. 2nd, 2009 02:01 amI enjoyed reading all the posts on the Drollerie Press blog tour (a complete list with urls is here). You can find my post, hosted by Joely Sue Burkhart over at Dreaming in Rhyme, here.
One thing tells me we have more to learn about how to make blog tours work: all the blogs that usually attract comments had a big drop in comments the day of the guest post. The blogs that don't (yet) tend to get comment traffic didn't get any more for having a guest post than they usually do, though that's not surprising. Sometime when it's not roughly 2am, I'll have to take a look at non-Drollerie blog tours and see if that's a general pattern. If not, I'll have to find someone who's made this kind of thing work before, and do a little brain-picking.
Meanwhile, Happy Imbolc, everyone.
