Yeah, you would have to look for some international publishers that send books to people all around the world. :) Thanks for stopping by!Michelle (A Thousand Lives Lived) https://www.blogger.com/profile/07028045386032178941noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1071651534915078257.post-35673049828459356382014-07-07T11:00:31.839-04:002014-07-07T11:00:31.839-04:00I am sorry to say I'm not gonna be of much hel...I am sorry to say I'm not gonna be of much help to you, since the only 3 physical ARCs that I've got were won on giveaways! I get eARCs from NetGalley and Edelweiss and those still feel like the biggest blessing everrr!!<br />It'd be very hard for me to get more ARCs, either physical or digital since I'm based in Spain, and books in English aren't in a big demand here...Pilihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05235628363081574896noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1071651534915078257.post-82422733927767610292014-07-03T21:00:05.965-04:002014-07-03T21:00:05.965-04:00Hi Zoe!

I have tried both, and I will continue to try establishing my blog out there and everything else you've mentioned. <br /><br /> I'll try my best! :D :*Michelle (A Thousand Lives Lived) https://www.blogger.com/profile/07028045386032178941noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1071651534915078257.post-22791491103689369252014-07-03T18:58:55.695-04:002014-07-03T18:58:55.695-04:00Ohh!

I hope ARCs start coming your way soon.

I have won 3 books from Wendy from The Midnight Garden, but those weren't ARCs.<br /><br />Yeah, probably. If I lived in the US (I live in Canada) I would go to conventions all the time. The big name publishers are located in the US and that kind of makes sense why they get more? We don't have any book conventions here. :(<br /><br />Thanks a lot! I'll try my best by establishing myself more out there! :DMichelle (A Thousand Lives Lived) https://www.blogger.com/profile/07028045386032178941noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1071651534915078257.post-43074431179168180822014-07-03T08:09:12.602-04:002014-07-03T08:09:12.602-04:00I can't help you here.

In the past 5 or 6 years authors contacted me and sent me ebook versions but not the ARC's. The ARCs are nice because they usually sign them. They seem more personable than an ebook and a nice keepsake.<br /><br />Lately I haven't received any... but I don't ask for them either. Maybe if I put forth the effort I might get one or two. <br /><br />These other bloggers that get tons like you mentioned above, I'm thinking that they've established themselves in that "blogging realm" by going to conventions and getting their names out there etc. You've only been blogging since 2012 and you've sent emails. I'd say give it some time and you'll get there. Just keep doing what you're doing and posting your reviews everywhere to get a good name going and after awhile the publishers and authors will recognize the name and start sending more to you. Best of luck! Carriehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10948279980310231004noreply@blogger.com
