Thursday Tag Party for 11/18/10!

Tag Party Time! This week I've unabashedly taken the info from HOAF to create a New Release Tag Party. But remember, tagging is just as beneficial for backlisted items, so if you have older titles you want featured, you know where to find me...

The quick manual if you're a new tagger cadet:

Go to the Amazon buy page (I've included the links below)

Scroll down to the Tags Customers Associate with this Product header

Look for these tags: SFR, Scifi Romance, SF Romance, Science Fiction Romance and Paranormal Romance - please feel free to add any extra tags you feel are appropriate to the work (i.e. Space Opera, Military SF, etc.)

Don't forget your SFR Brigade Tag!

If the tags are already there, just click on them to add your 'vote'

If not, type them into the 'your tags' box to add them (no need to save the page, just type and add)

For a list of past Tag Party books, come on over to the Book Launch and Tag Party Books page. Tagging is always welcome.

And now our lovely covers and links for this week!

Silver Bound by Ella Drake

Borealis II - A Space Anthology featuring Stephanie Burkhart

Blown Away by D L Jackson

As always, we're looking for YOUR SFR books - new or old releases on Amazon that we haven't featured yet. I'm also looking for the perfect hard-bodied warrior/poet to be my second husband. Hey, a girl can dream, right? If you have either, send me a message at ravenesperanza@yahoo.com and I'll add you to the schedule.

Laurie A. Green said...: Done!

These have been added to the Book Launch and Tagging Party page (see link on side bar), and I'll also be adding the publisher going forward.; November 18, 2010 at 6:53 AM
Pauline B Jones said...: I went and tagged! Just a suggestion to the anthology authors, but when I'm in an anthology, I will add a tag of my name, just so readers will know I'm in there and it will show up in my other tag listings. :-); November 18, 2010 at 7:52 AM
Laurie A. Green said...: Great idea, Pauline!; November 18, 2010 at 7:59 AM

I wanted to mention that the cover for Blown Away blows me away. Super job on that one.; November 18, 2010 at 3:28 PM
Sandra Stixrude said...: Pauline is so smart! And I have to agree with Marve - loved the Blown Away cover as well.; November 18, 2010 at 4:22 PM
Laurie A. Green said...: Dawn was so pleased with that cover. I totally agree, I think it's awesome.; November 18, 2010 at 5:25 PM
Lisa Lane said...: Done! Nice covers, BTW.; November 18, 2010 at 5:38 PM
D L Jackson said...: I love the cover and it really suits the novel. Thanks so much for the tags. I started it yesterday and it was great to see the extra ticks next to the tags and tags I didn't think of.

Blogging Rules

The SFR Brigade "Golden Rules" for posting:

1. Please allow at least 3-4 hours since the last post to give everyone a little time at the top of the blog. (Time sensitive posts or information that must reach members immediately are the exception. Please use your discretion.)

2. No "hit-and-run" posts, please. Promotional posts by any member who is not otherwise active in the community will be deleted without notice. Repeats may result in loss of blog author privileges. The community blog is intended to share information between members and not to be used solely as a self-promotion bulletin board.

FAQ

Can anyone join SFR Brigade?

Anyone who writes, publishes, reads, is a fan of or is involved with Science Fiction Romance in literature is welcome to join. The site can only accomodate up to 100 authors, so it would be counter-productive to open it to a wider membership (such as those who are primarily interested in SF/R movies or television instead of literature) due to these limitations. (Which is not to say we don't banter about film culture SF/R on a regular basis, which will soon be evident.)

If this is SFR Brigade, why is the address http://www.sfrcontests.blogspot.com?

This is actually the second incarnation of the SFR Brigade. The original (which still owns the site name) was a private site where a few SFR writers privately discussed the subgenre and plotted to take over the universe. From zero hour, the plan was to expand the SFR Brigade to other writers, but when the time came, it seemed the best way to accomplish that was to construct a brand new site instead of trying to rebuild and clean out the cobwebs of the rusty one. And here we are, all bright and shiny. Hello!

What's the point of SFR Brigade?

*Yoda laugh* Epic plans, we have. Yes. Very epic. Patience, Padawan, and our plans will be revealed. First you must seek out our Welcome Message on the planet Degobah so you may begin your training.

What can SFR Brigade do for me?

Ask not what SFR Brigade can do for you... :) I think Five Reasons Why You Should Join will address that nicely.

OK, I think I've been drafted. Where do I report?

Since some of our requests to join the Brigade have been spirited away by evil Reavers (and we had to form an emergency task force to wrest them back from the crazed space cannibals) we've gone to an "automated" enlistment system.

Please go to the SFR Brigade Facebook Group Page and request to join. Then open the Files (link at the top of the FB page) and look for the doc that says "Add Me to the Brigade Roster."

There, you'll type in your name as you want it to appear and the web site or blog you'd like linked to your name. We'll add you asap.

That's it! You're in!

What's that? You don't have a Facebook account? Not to worry. Just leave a comment here with your name as you'd like it to appear and the web site/blog you'd like your name linked to and we'll beam you up next sweep.
