How to Order a Book Tour
The author decides to initiate a book tour and decides what dates are convenient for them. The book tour spans over two or three weeks of weekdays. The author is expected to visit each blog each day to leave comments and engage in dialogue with the commenters and to answer questions.


The author is asked to send:
1. Author bio
2. Author pic
3. Book description
4. Book cover art
BronzeWord submits the author’s material to a list of blogger, and the bloggers decide whether they wish to host the author.
On "Happens" the entire tour and what is expected of the author is listed. Read the whole explanation here.

Become a Latino Virtual Book Tour Host

Basically this means once a month a Latino/a author will visit your site. You can ask them questions or have them write an article or do a book review and even giveaway a free book. Promote the visit and pass on the link afterwards. If the author or book isn’t in a genre of your choice, you don’t have to participate. There is no charge to be a Latino Virtual Book Tour host.
