    BLOG TOURS and HOPS

     The idea of a Blog Hop, Tour or Chain is to go from one blog to another. Most have a general theme and each Blogger adds his or her contribution on his or her own blog.
    The idea is to introduce readers to new authors and blogs that they have not come across before. So join me (and many varied and interesting Authors) on a variety of fab tours!
