Why Am I A Blogger?  (Here comes some Rambling)

Friends who don't read probably think my "Blog" is Lame.  They probably think it's just a waste of time.   It may not seem like a lot to do when you run a blog.  But trust me....there is more to it than just reading a book and posting what you thought.

My email is constantly Full of review requests and requests to post this sale and join this Cover Reveal and Blog Tour and Release Day Blitz.  I am constantly on the prowl for new things to post to keep you updated on what the authors have going on etc.   I spend hours doing blog stuff.  IF my doing all this reaches 1 person who hasn't heard of this author or their book and they one click and fall in love....then my job is done!  All the hard work has paid off - to me anyway.  Because that is why I do it!  I have built my own little community by blogging and I love it!  I blog to share any and all information I find about Indie Authors that I think my followers will like to hear.

Being a blogger - is not a paying job for me! The only time I get any kind of money from this is if someone clicks on a link I post and buys the book and trust me... the amount of money we get for "promoting a book for Amazon" would make you laugh!  I'm talking pennies......  I do this on my own time.... alone! I did this for months before signing up with Amazon so please don't think I do this to make money.  Because I don't.  I will continue to do it whether I make a few pennies or not.   I do it solely to promote Indie Authors.  End Of!  ;)

 I did find an Amazing Full Time Reviewer now - Amy - to help with the reading/reviewing.   She is a blessing!   I have my Best Friend Stephanie who helps when she can - but she's an author and has her own blogs to run.  So, I do my best!  If you find something you think others would love to hear about.  Please feel free to send it to me in a private message for me to share.


I use to get worried about what people would think about my blog and what I post.  Why should I be ashamed of what I enjoy reading and promoting?  I am comfortable in what I read and review and promote.  My husband knows what I do and listen up... he reads it too!  He supports me and promotes my blog all the time.  We all have different genres we love. Is my favorite genre Erotica?  Yes- but I also enjoy others.... I read YA, NA, Romance.   Just because I love a genre doesn't mean everyone does and vice versa.  But - it also shouldn't be reasons to cast judgement on someone.

I don't think it really matters what you read - as long as you are reading  =)

I don't mind pimping/promoting anyone's work.  I just ask that they message all the information to me via email or private message.  I do my best to fulfill everything sent to me.  We are always looking for new book to read/review.  We are always looking for new tours/cover reveals and release day blitz to help promote.  SO please.... send us that information.

My TBR list is miles long.  But that doesn't mean I am not searching for my next read.  I have met so many wonderful people blogging.  Authors, other bloggers, or just people who love to read!    The relationships I have made with my authors mean the world to me. I will never jeopardize their trust in me.   Yes, I still fan girl like most of you.

I went to my first book signing a few months ago and let me tell you....it was A BLAST!  I met so many of my favorite authors and met new ones too.  I met many bloggers and readers.  Everyone was there for the same reason.  To meet their favorites!  I will be going back to Book Bash next year.  I am attending Love N Vegas in October (with my husband - yes he too is anxious to meet some of his favorites now that he is reading).  I have several other events I would like to attend too.  This community has it's moments....but for the most part The Indie community is Amazing and one big family.  And I am glad to be just a tiny part of it!  

At the end of the day - blogging should be FUN!

So - if you are an author and would like my blog to help PIMP YOU OUT.  Please message me on here or email me - brewerswife4ever@yahoo.com     I just ask that you don't directly post any links etc to the blog.  =)

I am also open to having new guest reviewers.  Please message me if you are interested in reading/reviewing for the blog.  Who knows - just like Amy - you could become my newest team member  =)  It helps me more than you know!

To my authors - I say this all the time - thank you for taking a chance on me and for trusting me with your babies!  Love each of you!  <3 font="" nbsp="">
