Perhaps I&#8217;ve told you about it before?<\/p>\n<p>My plans are to help promote the book by doing a loosely scheduled blog tour that begins the last week of April (April 26) and continues through the first week of May (May 7). During this week I want to saturate my social network, and yours, with people talking about my book. That&#8217;s where you come in.<\/p>\n<p>I need people who are willing to do each of these four things during that two-week time period:<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: bold\">1. Read <\/span>an advance review copy of my book.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: bold\">2. Post <\/span>a review of the book on Amazon when it releases.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: bold\">3. Post<\/span> a review\/interview\/song\/video or something related to the book on your personal blog.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: bold\">4. Tell <\/span>people about that post on your Twitter and\/or Facebook account.<\/p>\n<p>If you&#8217;re willing to do that stuff &#8212; all four steps &#8212; I&#8217;ll see what I can do about getting an advance copy of <span style=\"font-style: italic\">O Me of Little Faith<\/span> sent your way. And, yes, if you want to interview me about the book I&#8217;m totally game. We can set it up.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: bold\">Are you willing? <\/span>If so, send me an email: <span style=\"font-style: italic\">jb [at] jasonboyett [dot] com.<\/span> Please include your mailing address and the name of your blog.<\/p>\n<p>Depending on the response, I might not be able to get a copy to everybody who requests it. It totally depends on the number of review copies Zondervan has available. But I&#8217;ll see what I can do.<\/p>\n<p><span>Update (8:48 am, 3\/31): <\/span>Thanks to all of you who have volunteered to help with the blog tour. I&#8217;ve reached my publisher&#8217;s predetermined limit, so the free advance copy offer has concluded. However, if you still want to <a href=\"http:\/\/www.amazon.com\/gp\/product\/0310289491?ie=UTF8&amp;tag=jasoboye-20&amp;linkCode=as2&amp;camp=1789&amp;creative=390957&amp;creativeASIN=0310289491\">preorder the book<\/a>, I imagine you&#8217;ll receive it a week ahead of the actual release. And I won&#8217;t stop you from posting about it, reviewing it on Amazon, and generally talking it up like a crazy person.<\/p>\n<p>&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8211;<\/p>\n<p>In the meantime, I want to invite you today to use the comments section along the same lines, by answering the following questions:<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: bold\">1. <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: bold\">What is the first website or blog you check each day?<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: bold\">2.
