Silver Dagger Book Tours was founded in September 2016 from the creative mind of a book blogger wanting to share her passion for books with new readers.
Maia used to be just an internet crawler looking for new books and giveaways and stumbled upon book tours. After indulging in many dozens of tours, she decided try her hand at blogging in her spare time (with absolutely no blogging experience at all!) to help share the amazing books she was being exposed to. She was a book blogger for several companies (and still is) and stuck with it for over 3 years. In that time, she learned all the ropes and became a pretty efficient blogger, but there was still something missing- she wanted to make her posts stand out a bit! So, she started creating small special graphics like “about the book” and the other standard graphics that you see in all her tours nowadays and started jazzing her posts up.
It took several months of trying to get the ball rolling and was quite difficult at first to get authors to tour with her. Thus, she had an idea to let everybody pay what they can comfortably afford instead of set rates as she thought what some other companies charged were just outrageous! Authors were so pleased with the idea that their tours would always be completely affordable to every budget, that the same module is still in place today with no plans to implement set rates in the future.
Since then, Silver Dagger Tours has done over 2500 tours and worked with hundreds of amazing authors – many who come back for repeat tours! Two to three tours kick off every weekday with occasional tours on the weekends and EVERY tour is required to have a giveaway so readers can gain a little something and have fun while they enjoy learning about new books.
As readers loves books in all genres, Silver Dagger Book Tours accepts all fictional genres and the occasional non-fiction book if it is interesting enough. They work with publishers big and small, indie authors, personal assistants and of course authors directly that just want to get a promo boost for their books.
Silver Dagger Book Tours now has expanded to a staff of three with various duties per person and is rapidly expanding to new areas on a daily basis!

A third generation local of the historic town of Fredericksburg, TX, I was born and raised among the rolling hills of the Texas Hill Country where the beauty of the landscape is breathtaking and town is famous for the Main Street historic shopping district, the best peaches in the world, wildflowers and wine. I really can't imagine living anywhere else!
A country girl through and through, I grew up hunting, fishing and digging for Indian artifacts, all the while enjoying the many rivers and swimming holes around town. I'm a stay at home mom with three beautiful boys, ages 11, 4, and 3 and a newborn daughter that keep me on my toes with constant chaos.
A bookaholic from birth, I have always had a deep passion for reading and spend many late nights devouring books into the wee hours of the morning. My “real” book collection numbers over 3000 books and takes up an entire small room in our house with custom bookshelves built by my husband that I call my “book cave”. I've been building this collection since my childhood and will keep on adding to it for the rest of my life. Of course, I also have a similar collection of ebooks as well since finally went digital a few years ago.
In my spare time, I enjoy reading, playing with my kids, doing DIY renovation projects with my husband, cooking, and relaxing on my back porch with a good cup of coffee while I watch the massive axis deer herd come through the yard.
