The Swamp Hop Moves Ahead

August 27, 2012 By C. Lee McKenzie 16 Comments

If you’ve got a book out and you’d like to talk about it to a few million people, here’s one way. The Book Club Radio Program with John Austin. He does a mean interview. I’ve put mine here if you want to have sample of what happens. Once you’re on the site, you can find a lot more.

Now about today . . . 
Five blogger/writers let the alligators visit. They even let me tag along on this part of the Swamp Hop!

Ruth Schiffmann goes OUT ON A LIMB and hosts Alligators Overhead. 

SUSAN KAYE QUINN let’s me go on a bit more about characterization, so I hope you stop in and see us there.

Carrie Butler offers up my piece “Is It YA or MG?” on her supercalifragilisticexpialidocious blog, SO, YOU’RE A WRITER . . . 

and at Arlee Bird’s TOSSING IT OUT I take my life in my hands and talk about “catnip and writers.” I hate to even mention catnip these days. 

I’m very excited to be Empty Nest Insider’s first ever guest! 

Don’t dilly dally here today. I’m taking a nap before I start the last lap around the SWAMP. Remember I still have those ridiculous cats to deal with when they return from their conference. This story has an ending, so stay tuned!

    Love your book trailer. I am wondering what age group your book is geared for? My grandson will be turning 8 in a few months and he loves books. The Goosebumps series are still a little too much for him though, maybe next year for those. Enjoyed reading your postings on your book.

    What if I fall in the Swamp? Interesting trailer, Clee. I'll get a copy when I put this manuscript down.

    Hi! Bye! I'm running as fast as I can. If blog hopping counted as a cardio workout I'd be in super shape. Thanks for stopping in to say hi here and there. Really do appreciate it.
