What ARC Readers Receive

A digital ARC (pre-publication copy)

What I ask for in return

ARC reading is meant to be a positive and low pressure experience. Life happens and books take time. All I ask is that you:

• Keep the ARC file private and do not share or upload it

• Aim to read within the agreed time window if you can

• Consider leaving an honest review on Goodreads or Amazon when you are ready

• Let me know if something comes up and you need more time

Your honesty matters more than a certain number of stars. Thoughtful, genuine reactions help me grow as a writer and help other readers decide whether the book is for them

How I Choose Readers

I look for readers who:
• Love the genre
• Understand confidentiality
• Have time to read before launch
• Enjoy reviewing
• Want to support new voices in fiction

You don’t need to be a professional reviewer — enthusiasm and reliability are more important.

What Happens Next

Once applications are reviewed, selected ARC readers will receive:
• A welcome email
• An ARC welcome pack
• The secure ARC download link
• Guidance about reviews for Goodreads and Amazon

ARC emails will be sent via MailerLite and you can unsubscribe at any time.

Thank You

Thank you for considering joining this early stage of my writing journey.
It means more than I can say, and I’m really excited to share the world of my book with you.

Warmly,
Emma
