For Bloggers A GlossaHouse Online Initiative

The Purpose of “For Bloggers” is to engage the blogosphere, particularly those blogs relating to

linguistics, theology, Christianity, exegesis, etc., with GlossaHouse resources.

How the “For Bloggers” initiative works:

Step 1: Bloggers may be invited to participate in this initiative or they may apply to

participate. Bloggers can apply by including the following information (e.g. Publication

name, Publication ISBN, etc.) inside the “Comments” section of the contact form at the

following link: http://www.glossahouse.com/p/contact-us.html or by emailing us at:

glossahouse(at)gmail(dot)com.

Step 2: Each blogger’s application will be reviewed by GlossaHouse. If all criteria (see

below) are met, the blogger may be invited to participate in the initiative. If criteria are

not met, the blogger may not be invited to participate in the initiative. GlossaHouse

reserves the right to accept, reject, or put on hold any application. Typically, a response

from GlossaHouse will be sent via email to each blogger within 2-4 weeks of their

submitted application or earlier if possible.

Disclosure of Material Connection: I received this book free from the publisher through the

GlossaHouse.com <http://www.GlossaHouse.com> book review program. I was not required to

write a positive review. The opinions I have expressed are my own. I am disclosing this in

accordance with the Federal Trade Commission’s 16 CFR, Part 255

<http://www.access.gpo.gov/nara/cfr/waisidx_03/16cfr255_03.html> : “Guides Concerning the

Use of Endorsements and Testimonials in Advertising.”
