You can now submit author events en masse to BookTour using XML. It's important, though, that your file conforms to our spec––otherwise your events may not be added properly.

Below you'll find an XML template with comments describing what's required and what can be left out. A more formal specification, or Document Type Definition, can be found here; this is the file we'll be using to validate your submission.

When you've finished creating your XML file, paste the URL below and click the "Validate and Submit" button. If everything stacks up to the DTD spec (see here), your events should appear shortly on the site. If there are problems with your file formatting, our system will let you know; just try to make your feed look as much like the example above as possible.
