I'll be honest, sometimes when I think of our wonderful Color of Love Blog Hop I think of the group Color Me Badd. If you don't remember them, here's their music to listen to (I chose a wildly appropriate song) while you read through my 4 reasons why you should participate in the Color Me Badd- oops, Color of Love Blog Hop.
1. You' ll gain exposure to blogs you may have never had the chance to encounter
2. A chance to show your book or blog off to the world, or at least those wonderful readers and buyers who stop by the blog hop
3. Prizes. Who the heck doesn't like to enter for a chance to win prizes?
4. It's a blog hop (I was trying to avoid writing Duh! but couldn't resist).
Sign up now for the blog hop and have some fun. Did you see how I sneaked in a fifth reason? I'm tricky like that sometimes.
Bloggers/Writers,

in multicultural or interracial settings/relationships. We hope you'll join us
