How to Guest Review
So as I previous stated in the note at the bottom of the “About the Bookworm” page, it would be a disservice for me to attempt to review a book every day or even every other day. That is why I am open to the Guest Review option.
Now you might say: “What’s in it for me?” Well beside telling the world about a pretty awesome book you just read, I can promise you two things:
(1) I will promote your guest review and personal blog on Twitter, Google+, and Facebook.
(2) I would be more than willing to return the favour and guest post for you.
Sounds like a plan? Okay!
Becoming a guest reviewer consists of two easy steps!
STEP ONE
If you wish to be a guest review send an email to erin.eymard@gmail.com with the title “GUEST REVIEW REQUEST” and the following*:
- Name
- Title of book you wish to review
- Link to previous reviews (if you have indeed reviewed)**
- Link to your personal blog/website (if you have one)
- Link to your twitter/google+ account (if you have either)
- A little bit about yourself (e.g. favorite authors, bio, hobbies)
*NB* This should be done (BEFORE YOU WRITE A REVIEW)!
**NB** You do not have to have previously done a review in order to guest blog. I am more than willing to give new reviewers or bloggers who want to branch out some spotlight.
STEP TWO
After I receive all your information, I’ll check you out. If I think you’ll be a good fit for my site, I’ll shoot you an email telling you its a go. We will agree on a deadline and you’ll get to working on your review. If I don’t think you are a good fit, I will politely decline and explain my reasoning. Either way, you will receive an email from me. Once you are done with the review, you’ll submit it to me via email. I’ll give it the one over for grammatical errors and then post it, along with links to the book and to your site.

You may consider contacting Fran Lewis on Facebook. She does book reviews daily (just did mine). She might be willing to do guest reviews from time to time.

Currently not accepting submissions
- I prefer to review works in the following genres: science-fiction, fantasy, historical fiction, historical romance, and poetry.
- If you are an author and wish to have your work reviewed, please send an email with the subject line “REVIEW REQUEST” to erin.eymard+review@gmail.com. Please either attach an epub copy of the book or link to Kindle copy the book.
- Book reviews will be at least 250 words and accompanied by a link to purchase your book as well as a star rating (1-5).
- I will not post a review if it is two stars or less.
- I will email you a link to the book review or my thoughts if the review is not posted.
- Posted reviews will be linked on Twitter, Facebook, and Google+. I would appreciate it if you would link to the review also through your social media sites and personal blog.
- Finished works only.
*NB*While I don’t mind paying to read a book in order to review it, please note that it does move it down on my review list. I’d rather spend the extra money on diapers for my monster

I could not email to that one you listed.
I have a short story on a blog I would like to be reviewed, plus the other posts. The Short story is a social science fiction.
Here it is

Howdy Erin,
We need your help and we’re not too proud to admit it.
Did you ever wonder what grandparents really got up to when they were younger?
Have you ever seen a Mexican Barking spider?
Do you know who the first man to walk on Mars was?
Find the answers to all of these questions along with why so many N.A.S.A scientists are bald and just why American bridges are so strong, inside this wonderful new book.Granpa Guff, the accidental astronaut.
Warning: may contain rockets and scenes of a spidery nature.
Thank you kindly for taking the time to read this guff.
Sincerely
G Guff
PS / Please let us know what format you prefer an epub / Kindle version? We would delighted to forward you a copy to review.

I’m sorry you currently don’t accept submissions for reviews. When will you open up for reviews again?

About the Bookworm
A Glimpse at the Bookworm
The Bookworm, otherwise known as Erin Eymard, is a lover of the written word, language, and history. As a new mother, she does her best to sneak in as much reading as possible considering her Nook a sanity saver. She especially enjoys science-fiction, fantasy, and historical fiction / romance. Also a dirty little secret about the Bookworm is that she is a gamer. When not reading, working, or tending to the little tyke, she enjoys tabletop games of all kinds.
The Bookworm also does book reviews at The New Podler Review.
*NB* - You may notice that after I do a review of a book, I spend a little time introducing the reader to the author. I do this because a good book review takes a little while to put out. I cannot in good conscience put out a book review every day or every other day. It does no justice to the reader or the author. To fill the space between reviews, I will give the readers more information about the authors reviewed. I will follow up with an author interview as well as an interesting post or two from their blog (if they have one).
*NB* – In accordance with the new FTC Guidelines for blogging and endorsements, I would like everyone to know that while I do purchase my own books for review on occasion, you should assume that every book reviewed here was provided to the reviewers by the publisher or the author for free unless specified otherwise.
