The Founder of BookTour
A.R. Grosjean founded BookTour with the hope of helping other Indie Authors like herself. When she began writing, she didn't understand the Writing World and how hard it would be to put a book in someone's hand. She learned through trial and error, just like any other author. She was even published through the traditional means, learning a lot from the editors and publishers. A.R. Grosjean decided to take the route of Indie Publishing to gain control over the prices of her books, how the books were designed, and more. She never regretted her decision but learned it would be a bigger challenge to gain readers. Why? She was unheard of in a world of big-name authors competing for the light.
​
Authors shouldn't have to compete with each other to gain your attention. We should be writing, creating worlds you can become lost in. Another author approached A.R. Grosjean with the idea of creating a blog that would help other authors. A.R. Grosjean took it a step further by creating this website. Instead of charging authors to be placed on the site, she decided that everyone included would simply share the link for the site, giving everyone on the site an opportunity to be seen by readers across the world. Hence the name.
