 Want to help an Indie author out? Reviews are super important for Indies! If you join my ARC (Advance Review Copy) team, you get to read new books early, before anyone else... in exchange for an honest review. Allegedly, something magical happens when you have fifty reviews on Amazon. I don't know if that's true or not; want to help me find out?
-Can't review on Amazon? My books have a sad number of reviews on other platforms. Please help! In fact, if you already reviewed on Amazon and have an account on Kobo, Barnes and Noble, Apple, or Google, I would LOVE it if you would copy and paste your review there! <3 I'm a wide author; help me be wide and have reviews EVERYWHERE!

 I used to have a Google Form where I asked a bunch of questions, but... meh. Let's make things easier for everyone! The new ARC team process is:
-  - Write your review anywhere: retailers, review sites, your social media. I'm easy! (I do want text rather than just a star rating, but... an honest review from a human. No ChatGPT or whatever. Ask me why I feel like I need to specify that.)
+  - Write your review anywhere: retailers, review sites, your social media. I'm easy! (I do want text rather than just a star rating, but... an honest review from a human. It's not a book report. There's no minimum wordcount.)
   - Tell me about your review with a very simple form: your email address, your first name, and a link to your review. My current top priority is //Immortal Gifts//, but if you haven't read that one yet, that's okay.
   - When my next book comes out (or the audiobook for //Immortal Gifts//, which is coming soon), you'll be FIRST IN LINE to read it!
