Might it be my love for books, the written word, my own curiosity, or a combination…but I absolutely adore connecting with authors.
SUBMISSIONS FOR BOOK REVIEWS/AUTHOR INTERVIEWS ARE NOW CLOSED
as I catch up and work on my writing. Thank you for your interest.
PITCH A BOOK
Want to be featured on my author interview series? I get hundreds of submissions! It’s really an embarrassment of riches. I hate saying ‘no’ because every book is a huge accomplishment, but with only 4-6 slots each month, I must be selective. How do I pick? It has to be a book I really want to read!
I totally geek-out over these categories:
- Literary fiction
- Historical fiction
- Memoir
Better yet if they have a house-home-decor theme or one of mental health/illness, motherhood and grief.
Please do NOT pitch any books in the fantasy, science fiction, young adult, or middle grade categories. I’m pretty picky about coming-of-age, too.
Check out the books I’ve featured here and here. If your book doesn’t seem like something I’d like, please don’t pitch.
Still think I’ll like it?
- Send a note to leslie_lindsay (at) hotmail.com.
- Include the author name, book title, pub date, link to more info, book cover image, author bio, and headshot.
- If interested, I’ll let you know. If not, please don’t follow-up. Thank you!
Let’s be social.
