Latino authors featured in virtual book tours

Virtual book tours especially for Latino/a authors
by Mayra Calvani, Examiner.com

There's a new blogger in town offering virtual book tours especially for Latino/a authors and her name is Jo Ann Hernandez, the lady behind BronzeWord Latino Authors. An author herself, Jo Ann knows how hard it is to promote books in the very competitive world of publishing. She has many contacts in the Latino blogosphere and will plan and coordinate your virtual book tour according to you and your book. Jo Ann is the award-winning author of the young adult novels, White Bread Competition and The Throwaway Piece.

The first Latino virtual book tour is happening right now and Jo Ann's first client is 20-year old novelist Estevan Vega, author of suspense thrillers. In this tour, he's promoting his 2nd book,The Sacred Sin.

I recently did an article on Estevan. If you'd like to read it, please click HERE.

Below is the full tour schedule. If you're a book lover, consider visiting the blogs and leaving comments. Vega will be giving away an autographed copy of his novel to one lucky winner EACH day of the tour! I'll be hosting the author here on the Examiner on June 27th, the last day of the tour.
