I’ve decided that it’s time to go ahead and put out the call for beta readers for MISTRESS OF THE AGES. I’m still waiting for a few revisions for the very last chapters, but the rest of the book is ready for “beta testing,” so I’m going to go ahead and send out all but the last bit and then send that on once it’s ready.
For those who may be new to this game, the function of beta readers in my editorial process is primarily to find anything that jolts you out of the story or that you think, well, sucks. Finding typos and bloopers is, of course, always appreciated, but don’t feel like you have to dig around for them. I want you to read the book and let me know what, if anything, you didn’t like about it so I can put some final polish on it before it hits the street.
For those who are selected, I will need your feedback not later than next Sunday, 26 July.
If you can’t meet that deadline, please don’t apply.
To toss your hat in the ring, submit a comment to this post telling me why you’d make a good beta reader. I plan to make the selections sometime this evening and will notify the poor fools, er, lucky winners tonight or tomorrow morning!
