**** Thanks for arriving to this page. Currently, I am not accepting new featured authors. I have arrived at my peak submissions for the year. Should I have more resources to devote, I will add more throughout the year. All the best, Maria ****

Send Q&A, brief bio, and photo to: maria@booklaunchcafe.com. Please send in one complete email to help me expedite your posting.
For mailing address to send book for book review, email maria@booklaunchcafe.com
Reviews could take up to 3 months but maybe sooner! Contact me for special exceptions, ie to time with your book tour and signings.
Incomplete submissions have a chance of not being reviewed. Please save me time and submit requirements in one email. All submissions will be reviewed to determine if there is a fit on BLC. I will do my best to post your feature, but cannot guarantee a spot. I will contact you if your submission gets accepted. Again, congratulations on your new book!
Lastly, a Book Launch Cafe mention to your friends and link on your website would truly make my day.
With your success in mind,
Maria Carbonell Elliott
