GIVEAWAY/EVENT: Great Canadian Blog Bash

Welcome to The Great Canadian Blog Bash at SMS Book Reviews!

I also blog at http://callistasramblings.blogspot.com which is also participating in this event so check over there for more giveaways.

My name is Callista and I'm a SAHM of three children, a dog, a cat and a fish. I love reading and love blogging and I especially love sharing what I read with others. I started writing book reviews online way back in 2001 but didn't put them on a blog till 2003 and didn't blog regularly till 2007.

Unlike most other book bloggers, I rarely read fiction. I love nonfiction and I read picture books with my children. If I do read fiction, it's usually YA. I also sometimes review children's fiction on here, but nonfiction (adults and children) is my passion. I LOVE learning.

Windsor Fireworks from Flickr User Tukanuk
I live in Windsor, Ontario, Canada and am a very proud Canadian. I love reading Canadian blogs. Have you ever been here to the southernmost part of Canada before? It's strange, all Canadians know Canada is above the US but here in Windsor, we are actually below part of Michigan!

You can find me on twitter, facebook, stumbleupon, goodreads and linkedin. If you follow me on any of these and/or Google Friend Connect, let me know and I'll return the favour as long as your blog is in English.

Thanks for your comment on my blog. I've got 4 people helping me edit my book, and I've done editing professionally, so I don't think that'll be a problem. I know what you mean about the cover, it's so important to have a great cover, and that's something I'm working on while the book is being edited. As for HubPages and Squidoo, it's a way to make money on the side through writing - reviews, articles, blogs, etc. You make money through Google Adsense, Amazon and eBay, and a few other ways.
