Blog Alliance




As a result of chatting with Christian Fiction supporter, Jenny Blake ,Christian Writers Downunder has started our very own Aussie Blog Alliance. What's a Blog Alliance? It's when a group of people who have blogs get together and blog about a book. Not just any book, but in this case, an AUSSIE book. The goal is to make everyone aware of Australian Christian authors. The book nominated will be blogged over a three day period by our group of bloggers. This will either be a Monday -Wednesday, or Wednesday-Friday. Most people blog on those days, so there shouldn't be a problem.

1. The author or publisher will be responsible for sending out books on a no-charge basis to the bloggers. These books can then be given away as prizes or donated to your church library, but may not be sold. PDF copies of books are acceptable, but under no circumstances, are these to be forwarded to anyone else.

2. Reviews can either be in interview form, or a review about the book.

3. Be honest, it's no good saying the book you've just read is wonderful when it's not. People won't trust your advice in future.

4. Only books by Aussie authors or expats will be allowed at this time.

5. CWDownunder will supply an Amazon link to be posted at the bottom of the review. The link provided must be included as it is used by Technorati to calculate which book features on their popular book page.Which of course, is what we all want. If your book isn't sold on Amazon then a link to Koorong can be used instead.

6. Posting on your blog is a commitment you make when you ask to read the book. If you want to add your blog fill in the form below. Your name and blog address will be added to the website. CWDownunder does not solicit books for review by our bloggers. We simply don't have time to hunt down every book that has been published. Publishers and authors are welcome to contact us using the form below and let me know what books you have in mind. This is open to self-published and small press books. However, please note that if we deem a book does not fit within suitablility guidelines, then it will not be accepted. At this moment there is no charge for your book to be included for a blog tour.


We will send an email to all participants at the end of the month to advise the books available to choose from. You do not have to choose every book if you don't want to.

CWDownunder will then either forward a PDF format of the book to you, or ask the publisher to post the book directly to you.

Participants will have one month to read the books, and will blog about them the following month on dates to be advised.

December books will be blogged in February, January books blogged about in March, etc.

We don't appreciate spam either, so;

At no time will we forward your email address to anyone, including authors or publishers. The only emails you will receive from us will be in relation to the Blog Alliance, unless you've subscribed to either our newsletter or HyalineHouse Publishers newsletter.
