I’m excited to participate in this cool little blog hop put together by The Book Blogger’s Resource group. Today I’m happy to share a guest post from Debra at Book Enthusiast Promotions.
Debra created The Book Enthusiast blog in November 2012. She wanted to find some like-minded people to chat with about books. She discovered the indie book world when she bought herself an iPad and was searching on iBooks for something to read. RL Mathewson books were the first to catch her eye and then a little book called Thoughtless by SC Stephens was next.
After that her addiction was born and she wanted to discover more and more authors and books. When her family got sick of hearing her talk about all the ebooks she was flying through, she investigated how to start her own blog. After a couple of month’s blogging, Debra got the hang of things and now, as of February, the following for The Book Enthusiast is at 13,000 Facebook likes and climbing.
Debra took on the challenge of maintaining a crazy reading schedule to review for blog tours, chat with fellow readers, and connect with authors. After six months of blogging she sought out help and was so lucky to find six awesome ladies: Cindy, Paula, Kelly, Tami, Erin and Nicola. Together they have maintained a reviewing schedule that is just insane, but it has been a blast.
Recently they added a review team to the mix and are now hosting Facebook Parties. Giveaways are constant (either on the blog or at Book Enthusiast Promotions). Their recent Facebook Party had over 90 authors and 100+ giveaways to win. The readers that attended had a blast and so did the authors.
They love to introduce readers to new authors and gush over their favorites. Some features on their blog or Facebook page include Facebook Takeovers, Man Candy Monday, Teaser Tuesday, Friday Five, Steals and Deal, Sexy Sundays and Flash Giveaways. They love chatting and recommending books.
Debra started writing last November and is nearly finished writing her first novel. She writes under the name Debra Presley and has 82K words written about her favorite pop star Abby and her hot bodyguard Danny. Our resident published author Nicola Haken just made the Best Seller list with her new release Being Sawyer Knight. Congratulations, Nicola!
