Hi everyone! I'm back online after some weeks of quiet. We officially launched the first wave #CelebratingDebutantes2016 on February 15, 2016. Now, we're back with the second wave! This will last for almost two months.
The Basics:
What is Celebrating Debutantes 2016? It's a blog event in which we would be featuring debut authors from NA, YA and MG that would have their books published in 2016. This feature was originally hosted by Michelle from The Escapist, however, she has left the blogosphere to focus on more important things in her life - work and ministry. So she passed on the crown to me.
What is different? Maricar and I split the event into two parts: First wave and Second wave. (This is the second wave!) We want to give readers a this-is-going-to-be-sold-soon-we-need-to-buy-it experience and awareness.
Who are hosting this event? Yours truly, from Fragments of Life + Maricar from Blackplume.
Duration of the event? August 4 to September 30 2016
Treat yourself to a complete #CelebratingDebutantes2016 experience. Take note of our schedule below, zero in on the titles that you're interested in, mark the date and visit us on the said date! But if you're here to discover debut authors and are ready for recs, then please be prepared for the onslaught. Because this event will last for 58 days of fun, book love and madness!
