As many of you may know, our beloved sister hostess SHARON DONOVAN, tragically passed away on 11th April 2012. We who knew her, loved her, and were inspired by her courage and determination to face head on whatever life threw at her. When she could no longer see to paint she turned to writing and showed her amazing talent in the Inspirational Romance and Romantic Suspense genres, and her story 'Charade Of Hearts' was awarded the coveted Predators and Editors Award in January 2011.

This Blog was a source of great delight to her, she was one of the founder hostesses and she contributed to the fun and silliness in her own original way, and was kind enough to let her unique creation, the hunky butler 'Oliver' join us for our Friday romp and prepare 'virtual breakfast' for the guests on the following morning. It's beyond hard to have to go on without her, but we know that she would have been the first to insist that 'the show must go on.' She is, and will always be with us in spirit.
Sharon, dear friend, we will never forget you.
The Author Roast and Toast is part of the legacy you left us. Let's raise a Toast to you as well as all our guests.
***********************************************************

OLIVER'S RULES - PLEASE READ IF YOU'RE AN AUTHOR AND WOULD LIKE YOUR OWN PARTY


        For Authors
If you'd like to be 'roasted' please see Oliver's rules below:
If you have a special date please give us plenty of notice.

OLIVER'S RULES

(Please read carefully to the end, and email us if you have any questions) authorroast@btinternet.com

To request a 'Roast Party':

Put the title of the book and genre in the subject line of your email, add a brief bio of not more than one paragraph, along with an appropriate short blurb and excerpt and the cover (as a jpeg) of your book. Send all this info (the excerpt, bio, blurb and cover) to authorroast@btinternet.com

Please don't reply here as this page is for information  only


*DO respect AR&T's family-friendly atmosphere. All excerpts must be suitable for family reading, no higher than G 13 rating, and be an average of 250-500 words.

 We  regret that we cannot accept anything of a Political or Controversial  subject matter and only hetrosexual 'straight' romance please - this is just a 'fun' blog and we prefer to keep the atmosphere light.  Thank you for your understanding. There are plenty of other sites that are happy to accept stories with this type of content.

PLEASE BE SURE TO ATTEND YOUR PARTY AND BE PREPARED TO CHAT AND COMMENT SEVERAL TIMES DURING THE DAY. THIS IS AN INTERACTIVE BLOG AND WORKS BEST WHEN THE GUEST OF HONOR IS ABLE TO CHAT WITH THE COMMENTERS!

This is YOUR day so please interact with other guests and be ready to award a small gift the following day. (Either a Gift Token or say $5.00 or something of similar value) We'll pick a winner from the random generator on this page and email their details to you. (If you'd prefer to choose your winner yourself, just post their name Saturday afternoon or Sunday morning.)

And please: DON'T forget to tell your friends and advertise your Roast on the day! PROMOTE! PROMOTE! PROMOTE!
We're happy to arrange your party and make it as attractive and as much fun as possible, but it's quite a lot of work so we can only do a limited amount of promotion in addition.
NB Authors - if you have a publicist or agent, please contact us to arrange your roast DIRECT. We are unable to accept third party requests. Thanks, and remember you can Email us at 
authorroast@gmail.com

The hostesses reserve the right to waive the prize for any week, at their discretion.

We love comments  - if you have a message for us please leave it on the last post on the main Author Roast Page  - and if you would like to have your own Roast Party after reading the above, please contact us at authorroast@btinternet.com to arrange a date.

Thanks so much!
