I think I won my first ARC on goodreads just a few months in. I used that as my "in" and requested a backlist title from the publisher, because the ARC was second in the series...so I explained I wanted to have the complete picture of the story arc. They sent me the hardcover! <br />Now I have developed a strong rapport with a couple of pubs....I get unsolicited packages, but I read all the ones I request (not many these days) and try to get to those they sent along anyway.Jenniferhttp://thebawdybookblog.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6490929628839780909.post-87241020768189171202013-07-18T01:01:00.240-05:002013-07-18T01:01:00.240-05:00Me too Jennifer, getting the mail is fun!Me too Jennifer, getting the mail is fun!kimbacaffeinatehttp://www.caffeinatedbookreviewer.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6490929628839780909.post-82823708230403398512013-07-18T00:58:11.818-05:002013-07-18T00:58:11.818-05:00You do what feels comfortable to you Nick.

I've always ...This is an interesting post, Kim. I've always wondered how bloggers get ARCs from publishers so this was very helpful, but I don't think I'm ready to start emailing them about ARCs I would like to read because I'm such a wimp. Plus, I'm still a tiny little blog and I know how much these ARCs and stuff cost and the whole point of ARCs is publicity. I'm going to stick to Edelweiss and NetGalley until I feel my stats are significant enough to request physical ARCs.Nickhttp://www.nicksbookblog93.blogspot.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6490929628839780909.post-76449358041930805002013-07-18T00:58:09.812-05:002013-07-18T00:58:09.812-05:00Great advice as always :)Great advice as always :)Blodeueddhttp://books-forlife.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6490929628839780909.post-45889971001818756212013-07-18T00:58:03.035-05:002013-07-18T00:58:03.035-05:00I spotlight it on my Sunday Post under gifted.

I have never been one to request many (if any) books and I still end up with loads. Once your established they will often find you. I think tweeting the publisher is a good tip. Just do that normally and they'll get to noticing your blog as it grows.Candace's Book Blognoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6490929628839780909.post-18632332799572002672013-07-18T00:55:16.385-05:002013-07-18T00:55:16.385-05:00Wonderful tips Kimba!
