<p>Well, a website is the most important, but it looks like you have one. I've only been doing my blog for about 3 months. It's about actual serial killer, stalker and domestic homicide cases. I enjoy researching them. One inspired my first crime thriller. I enjoy doing it and get some interesting feedback.</p>
<p>I'm not saying I'll never do another guest-blog, but right now my time is so limited I just can't even consider it. Good luck with marketing your book!</p>

<p>Susan, I haven't really done a lot of guest blogs.</p>
<p>Also, I don't have a personal blog. I know I should set up one, but I never get around to it. This way I get to fully enjoy the experience of guest blogging.</p>

<span class="rvts16">The first time Ruth Ann Steinhagen laid eyes on Eddie Waitkus she fell in love with him. In 1946, Eddie was the Chicago Cubs first-baseman. Sixteen-year-old Ruth Ann began going to Cubs games with friends. After collecting hundreds of newspaper pictures and articles, she built a shrine to him in her bedroom and often set an extra place at the dinner table for him.</span><br />
<br/>
<p><span class="rvts16">When Eddie was traded to the Phillies in 1948, Ruth Ann cried and said she didn't want to live. Annoyed that her parents sent her to a psychiatrist, the 19-year-old got her own apartment. Knowing the Phillies would play the Cubs in Chicago in June 1949, she decided it was time to meet Eddie. She reserved a room under the name Ruth Ann Burns at the hotel where the Phillies would be staying.</span></p>
<p><span class="rvts16">She also bought a .22 caliber rifle at a pawnshop.</span></p>

<p>Not to worry Raymond! We all do what we can do. My main point is that I don't have time to prepare guest blogs, and also that a couple of them that I did were either lost or messed up by the host. I enjoy writing my own blog, a crime blog ... and hey, I just put up a new post if you'd like to check it out. A GRAND-SLAM Obsession </p>

I haven't reached the guest blog point yet but I look forward to it. Every part of self marketing gets way tiresome but it's still better than a day job. It's your life's work and you can do it from home. Gotta live by that.

Sorry to hear it. This wasn't my local library. I got the gig thru the speakers bureau of the New England Chapter of Sisters in Crime. I've gotten a few that way. they don't all pay honorariums, but many do. SinC is a really worthwhile group to belong to in my opinion.

<p>Please spread the word: The official Blog Action Day tag is #BAD11 [that's BAD and the # 11]</p>
<p>Prior to Thanksgiving, I'll be teaming up with a Bed & Breakfast to do a book-signing/charity event to raise money for their food pantry. If you're an author, perhaps you could do a similar event. In any case, please consider donating to your local food pantry. There are a lot of hungry people out there.</p>
<p>And have a nice supper! </p>

Hmm, my library likes me to do this free. And I don't sell my own books. So: total loss!
