<p>Some writers coordinate their own blog tours which take considerable time.  Others work with a coordinator, like <a href="http://www.pumpupyourbookpromotion.com/virtualbooktours.html" title="Dorothy Thompson - Virtual Book Tours">Dorothy Thompson</a>, and use her expertise to organize everything.</p>
