Blog Tour RSS

Back in 2012, I was asked to design and run a blog-writing course for a community organisation in South Wales. Although I was no expert, I said yes! and started reading blogs every day to prepare. I loved the versatility of this form and feeling connected to people through their posts. It wasn’t long before I decided to start my own blog, Collecting Words, where I shared my experiences as an American writer living in Wales. I posted about the ups and downs of freelance projects, celebrated successes and included lots of poems and photos.

Since then, my little blog has changed enormously—existing now as a part of my professional website. I still read blogs on everything from true crime and British history to funeral directing and PhD life. However, the blogs I return to most are about books. I love finding out what people are reading and seeing the transformative power of literature in action. Perhaps this is why I am so excited to take part in my first blog tour for one of my own books

Following hard on the heels of some great reviews, The Vagabond King is going on tour! Check out the dates on this pretty poster and be sure to see what the bloggers have to say.

Sarah Broughton's blog tour for Brando's Bride is going down a storm so far - the response from reviewers and bloggers is overwhelmingly positive. It kicked off on October 11th (Brando and Kashfi's wedding day) with a review from Books on the 7:47 that got straight to the heart of Sarah's intentions with this book: 'Sarah achieved what she set out to do, I won’t forget about Anna now, or ever simply think of her as Marlon’s first wife.'
