GENERAL GUIDELINES (New this year)
I will feature fiction books for all blogs. Nonfiction books can be featured on all but Fiction Friday. For all featured authors, please send the following with your posts (submitted in an attached Word doc): a book cover and author photo, a short bio up to 150 words with no more than 3 social media links and an author website, and a book blurb with the primary buy link. If you are using images from a press release about your book, please send images separately.
Please provide actual URLs rather than hyperlinks in your doc.
Please be sure all images are in JPG or JPEG format and that you have permission to use them.
You may sign up for one feature on different blogs. You may sign up for one additional feature for different blogs if featuring a different book. I want to let as many authors take advantage of these book featuring opportunities as possible.

FICTION FRIDAY (see general guidelines as well)
This blog is for Christian writers of fiction to reach readers about their books. Posts can be from 750 -1000 words. Though I will accept posts about general market fiction, the books referenced must be clean and adhere to a Christian worldview. If unsure if your content is acceptable, contact me at lindarondeau@gmail.com. I am looking for posts about “why this book.” In other words, the Story Behind the Story. You can review Snark and Sensibility. (A change from last year)

HAVING THE PRIME OF MY LIFE (please follow General Guidelines as well)
This is a general market audience, but consistent with the Christian worldview.
Posts should of 400-500 words and should be related to positive senior living. Senior authors are especially desired. I will accept posts from non-seniors if the post is of benefit to seniors or about a senior who inspired you in some way.
This blog is intended for fun as well as information. Aging has its pluses. Posts should promote the positive aspects of aging with grace and dignity. Topics can include but are not limited to health and wellness, challenges of aging and tips to overcome those challenges, family dynamics, funny grandchildren stories, grandparenting from a distance, marriage in the golden years, going life alone in the golden years, adding family members, and holiday ideas for family get-togethers. Anything senior-related that promotes positivity.
If unsure, email me at lindarondeau@gmail.com. Please submit your post no later than two weeks before the due date. Sooner is better, but I understand the busy life of a writer.
NOTE: Content may be edited for flow, clarity, and reader sensitivity.
