The Jewels of Elul Blog Tour is coming

Writer's picture: Leah JonesLeah Jones

It is with great honor, that I introduce to you the Jewels of Elul blog tour. I’ve been helping organize blog tours since 2006, whe

n I did two with Amy Guth to help raise awareness of her first novel. But this is the largest that I’ve ever worked on – 29 days, 29 bloggers and an international audience.

Jewels of Elul is a book released every year by Craig Taubman and Craig N Co. Elul is the month that proceeds the high holy days in Judaism and is devoted to reflection on the previous year. To help spread the word about the book, daily emails and blog with posts from well-known rabbis, celebrities and activists we are hosting a parallel online event – The Jewels of Elul Blog Tour.

Every day a new blogger will be writing on the theme of The Art of Beginning… Again or answering a few questions from Craig N Co. The best way to hear about everything is to sign up for the daily email. Follow the link from the email to the site and out to the blogger. You’ll get to read both posts. If you are inspired, you are welcome to write on this theme on your own blog.

This year the program is benefiting Beit T’shuvah, a residential addiction treatment center in Los Angeles. You can subscribe on Jewels of Elul to receive inspirational reflections from public figures each day of the month.

Who will you be hearing from this month on the blog tour?
