BookTour.com: Find Out Where Authors are Speaking in Your Area

Weekend Supplement

A welcome and promising new service to be found on the web is BookTour.com. There's nothing like seeing an author live to help you get an idea of what they're all about and to ask some clarifying quesions. Finding out when and where they will be in town is the problem. BookTour.com aims to solve this obstacle.

It is a resource for both readers and writers. Authors create their own page (biography, books, tour dates and availability) and any group looking for speakers can find them and contact them directly to arrange for an appearance. Relevant information for both authors and venues can be added in minutes through a simple fill-in-the-blanks interface. Connecting authors with potential audiences then becomes as easy as searching (by geography, book titles, subject, dates of availability) and sending an email.

Check it out. Your participation will help make it a more useful tool for everyone.
