Sure. I'll five it a shot.

Would love to! Sounds like an adventure! :)

Do you interview any author, or do you have preferences?

I'm a Dutch suspense writer, author of the Amsterdam Assassin Series. You can check the FAQ of my Tao of Violence website to see if you'd like to interview me: http://tao-of-violence.weebly.com/faq...

Martyn,

Sure. I'm not too picky. Email me if you'd like, as well as anyone else.

I am the author of A CHILD IS TORN: INNOCENCE LOST. It has been a wonderful surprise to see my work do so well and be so well received.
I am 59 years old and have always dreamed of becoming an author since I was able to read. Never feeling that I would ever do it, it has given me a new respect for myself.

Hi there. I'd be happy to do an interview but would prefer to wait till my next book, A DANGEROUS FICTION, comes out in July. You can see my background on www.barbararogan.com. Basically I'm a former literary agent and editor turned novelist.

Hi Troy, did you get my reply?

Yes. I'm available for an interview. I may do this for my blog as well. I'm trying to promote my recently released novel, "The Founders' Plot," and this might help me. My name is Frank Victoria and my e-mail is fvquiller@gmail.com

Hi Troy, did you get my reply?"

Yes Martyn. Did you not get mine in return? Check your spam folder if you didn't.

I have quite a few authors in queue, and that's great. Hang in there, I'll get to you. I'm still also looking for non-authors (editors, publishers, graphic artists, etc.) for interviews.

Again, just email me at troyjacksonauthor@yahoo.com

I'd love to participate. My most recent book is 'Live Your Dreams'. www.bethanywilliams.org I also have a blog www.bethanywilliams.info I can't wait to check out your blog. bethany@bethanywilliams.org

Hi Troy,

I'd like to be added to your long list of acceptances! My book is Missing in Egypt, written around Australia and Egypt. I self-published on Amazon.

Hi Troy,

I sent you the interview January 9th. Did you receive it? And can you tell me if and when it will be featured on your blog?

Thanks,
Martyn.

I have a question...has blogging actually gotten book sales?

I am certainly interested. My first book is due to be published early spring. Contact me at bodyrestor8@yahoo.com

L.M. wrote: "I have a question...has blogging actually gotten book sales?" In a round about way,yes. By writing a blog post (related to the topic of my book) every two weeks, I have something to promote on Twitter and Facebook other than the book. If the topic can bring a fresh reader to my website then they find my book. However, I see the purpose of blogging as a way to "stay in touch" with people who've read my book and are waiting for the next one.

If blogging helps, which would be better? Linking your blog to others to draw interest to you or remaining solo, posting it wherever, and whenever you can? My blog is getting traffic but not much and I would like to either continue it and hope for the best or leave it along and try something else that yields a faster turnaround. Any suggestions?

I think of social media as fishing, you never know when or where you will get a bite! I suggest keeping up with your blog and getting it seen by as many eyes as you can. If you can connect with other blogs, do so.
Of course I say that, and I am not taking advantage of having my blog on this site. All I can say is, that by 'tweeting' that I've posted a new blog article, I have watched my website traffic numbers doulbe or triple within the next few hours. When people retweet or "star' me, I thank them and if I'm lucky we start chatting. This connection has resulted in many;"I just bought your book." relpies. It might seem like a lot of work to sell a book, but I'm happy to have personally introduced my protagonist to one more person who might enjoy him.
Good luck!

As a newly published author of Room 732, I am definitely interested in your offer. You can contact me at merlersaferstein.com or merlersaferstein@yahoo.com. Thank you in advance for this opportunity.

I think you can approach any published author and hear a resounding YES!

Troy, I'd be interested in an interview. My debut Science Fiction novel is out as an Kindle eBook and I'm announcing the availability of the p/back next week.
Here's my blog:
http://www.calculatedlife.com
and I'll email too.

I have been interviewing authors lately, find it fun and interesting. With these blogs, the traffic there has been going up and up. So if anyone is interested, check out my blog to see how I do them and if interested, contact me and I will be glad to do one for you as well. http://lmdavid54.wordpress.com/

Hello L.M. - I'm not sure if I would be your normal interviewee, given that my first novel isn't yet published (tweaking and waiting on cover art) but I have several years of writing fan-fiction behind me (my practice) and (apparently) an unusual style... if you want to check out my website/blog before deciding, please do: http://www.elainejjackson.com/ - I'd be very happy to link you on my site if you'd like.

Troy wrote: "I am looking for more guest interviews on my blog."

I'd certainly like to participate. I'm an author, yes, with two traditionally published books and four digitals, but I'm also a ghostwriter with 12 ghosted books and six developmentally edited books (fiction and non) in the past two years alone. If you'd consider revising your question to focus on ghosting, I believe we'd have something of interest to say to your audience. I'm at http://www.ontext/com and thanks for considering my idea.

I also would be interested in being interviewed. I've self-published a book based on my grandfather's World War One journal titled, "The Great Promise".

To find out more about me and the book checkout my goodreads author profile.

I would like to interview you and there's nothing wrong with getting it out there in front of readers early. I will check out your website and send you an email.

Late to the party, but count me in. My novel God's Forge is set for release February 28, and I'm up for talking about it.

Hello Troy

I'm set to be interviewed on LM David's blog once the cover art for my first novel 'All Our Yesterdays' (formerly 'All Our Tomorrows') arrives, and would love to be included on yours too, if you are interested?
Obviously I'll reciprocate with a link or however you prefer to do that. You can check me out on: http://www.elainejjackson.com/

I'd like to be on your blog. I sent you an email, but I didn't receive an answer. I have a new book out and I'd like to publicize it.

L.M. I have a collections book out and two sample ebooks. I am working on my debute novel that will be published by the end of this year. Plus, I am writing a blog series about a real person dealing with addiction. Once I hit 5,000 views, anyomous will let me publish the story in print and hand over all the right. This person is just trying to help others going through the same thing and give families insight about what is going on in the mind of an addict. This is a very new blog.
