I want to host a giveaway really bad however I do not have the financial means to buy a book. So I was wondering if anyone knew a site where a publisher will let me host a giveaway for their book. Please help as many sites as you can give me would be greatly appreciated!!!!
You can join the various groups here, there are quite a few that publishers are constantly looking for people to either host giveaways for books, or to give books to bloggers to review (usually you get a copy of the book that you host the giveaway for.)
You are in the right places there are three or four of them right on this site to contact. Go to Miriam Parker she works for Hatchette Books, Then there is Valerie also from Hatchett. You can also contact Pocket Books and Bridle Books. You can also request one from the author blog or website. I know that Michelle Moran does this. Her book is Nefertiti. She would gladly help you since she is coming out with a new book next month. She is very kind to bloggers.. Also there are authors that contact bloggers that want to review their book, at the same time you can ask if you can get a book for a giveaway. Most authors are receptive. There are not any bloggers that I know that buy books for their giveaway.
i just had my debut blog giveaways, and i bought the books for my giveaway...but i've only just begun...which i feel is totally appropriate for me because i don't have a follwer base yet.
Mary: Please post the address of your blog - is it Wordpress or Blogspot - so that new/potential readers can check out your site. OK? Joseph from http://josephsreviews.wordpress.com/
There is a contact button at the top of the page, from which it shows her personal email address. I've just messaged her about a review opportunity, her books look great. I love all things Egyptian.
I would be glad to send you a copy of No Mad, Swap and The Organ Grinder and the Monkey. Where would you like them sent?
