Call for Readers

I’m putting out a call for a few readers to help me out.  As some of you know, I have a new book coming out either late this year or early 2017.  The Cynic & the Fool covers similar territory to what I did in God Is Unconscious, but rather than being an academic text, this new book aims to put psychoanalysis and theology into a much more popularly accessible format.

So before this manuscript goes to a copyeditor, I’d like to get 5-10 people reading it.  I’ll send you the manuscript in PDF next Monday, and you would agree to read it within 3 weeks and get back to me with feedback on clarity (What needs more examples? What could be cut down? What did you have to read more than twice to get? etc.).  You would email your feedback, and then I’ll set up a Google chat for everyone to speak together. What’s in it for you?—not much, aside from getting a preview of my work and my thanks in the acknowledgements! And if I get more than 10 people interested, I’ll have to be selective so that I can read all feedback thoroughly.

My ideal reader is anyone who 1) is interested in theology/philosophy, 2) has a college degree, but 3) doesn’t have a graduate-level degree in theology/philosophy.  If you tried God Is Unconscious but found it too difficult, I’m talking about you. Message me (taddelay@gmail.com) if you’re interested.
