More on Walker Author Tours

My name is Jennifer Walker, and I am a published author (Bubba Goes National and Bubba to the Rescue), a full-time freelance writer (http://www.authorjennwalker.com), the owner of Walker Author Tours (http://services.authorjennwalker.com) and President of Your Document Professionals (http://www.yourdocumentpros.com). In between all of that, I also find time to ride my horse, an Arabian stallion named Solo (http://www.capthansolo.com) and pursue my passion for Argentine Tango, West Coast Swing, and Ballroom dancing. Whew! Am I a busy girl? You bet. How do I find time for it all? I'm not exactly sure, but being self employed gives me a lot of flexibility, and that helps a ton.

Walker Author Tours is a virtual book tour venture I've been working on for almost a year. It took me months to gather bloggers willing to participate in virtual tours, figure out how the tours would work to give authors the best value for the money, and build the website. However, it is all finally up and running, and we are running our first tour this week! Stop by the Elements of the Soul tour page (http://services.authorjennwalker.com/2011/02/05/elements-of-the-soul-book-tour/) to check out some of the stops. The tour will run for two weeks, so you'll get a chance to read reviews from a variety of readers, as well as interviews with the various contributors to this eclectic anthology of short stories and poems.

I'll be stopping by Feathered Quill 's blog from time to time to share book news, let you know about great new books to read that come through Walker Author Tours, and muse about my life as a full-time writer. Have questions for me?  Feel free to comment, and I'll try to get back to you!
