I’m opening up this ARC to a small, limited group of readers. Once the spots are filled, I will close the sign-up.

So you’re interested in joining the team as an ARC reader?

First of all—thank you.
You could be anywhere, reading anything… and you’re here, curious about my book. That means everything.

This page is here to help you understand exactly what being an ARC (Advanced Reader Copy) reader means—and why it’s such a powerful role in a book’s journey.

What’s an ARC?

An ARC is an early version of a book sent out before release day. It's a chance you to get the chance to experience the story first.

That being said, there may be some small proofing errors, grammatical mistakes, etc. that are going to require some tiny adjustments, but for the most part you are going to experience the book as it’s going to be published.

By signing up, you get to be one of the trusted few who get a sneak peek and a voice in what comes next.

What I Ask From You in Return

If you claim an ARC from me, here’s what I’m asking:

  • Read the book within 3-4 weeks

  • Don’t share your copy with others (The copy you receive is for your eyes only)

  • If for whatever reason the story doesn’t work for you, that’s okay.

    If you do connect with this story, I’d be extremely grateful if you’d consider leaving a review when the book goes live on May 20th.

    Simply put, reviews help books get seen.

    But more than that—your voice matters. Especially to us indie authors.

    Your thoughts and opinions might help someone else decide if this story is right for them.

New to ARC Reading?

You don’t need to be a professional reviewer. You don’t even need to have done this before.
If you’ve ever finished a book and felt something—you’re qualified.

Review Deadlines

If you do decide that you’d like to post a review on a site like Goodreads or Amazon, it will be possible and most appreciated as close to the release date as possible:
May 20, 2025

Why It Matters

Reviews don’t just help the book—they help me.
As an indie author, I may not have a big publishing team or budget, but I have you.
Your voice helps amplify mine. Your support is the reason this story will reach the readers who will enjoy it the most.

So thank you, truly.
Whether you’re here for your first ARC or your fiftieth, I’m honored to have you.

Ready to Claim Your ARC?

When you claim your ARC, you’ll ask for your email address.
Here’s why:

  • It’s used to watermark your copy (to help keep it secure).

  • You’ll also be given the option to join my newsletter—but that’s completely up to you.
    No spam. No pressure. Just updates, future ARC invites, and bonus content that won’t be seen anywhere else.

Want the book but not the emails? You don’t have to sign up for my newsletter to be an ARC reader on my team. Simply opt-out. You’ll still get your copy either way.
