ARC Applications *NOW OPEN*

If you follow me on social media, you might have seen that 'Home Is Where The Hurt Is' is now accepting applications for Advanced Reader Copy (ARC) readers. As an ARC reader, you will receive an early copy of the novel absolutely FREE, and if you enjoy it, please share a review (Amazon, Goodreads etc) after the official release date. 

When is the official release?

Great question. At this stage, it's set to be at the end of September. Once it's up on Amazon for pre-order, I'll update you here, and via my newsletter, so if you haven't done so already, please sign up

How do I apply to be an ARC reader?

Another excellent question. If you can commit to reading the novel before the release date in September, you can apply to be an ARC reader by answering a few quick questions here

What if I don't want to be an ARC reader and just want to buy the book?

I completely understand that committing to reading and reviewing a novel is not everyone's cup of tea - and that's OK. I anticipate that 'Home Is Where The Hurt Is' will be up for pre-order by early September (no later than mid-September).

What's taking you so long?

There's quite a lot that goes into self-publishing a novel, and this is my first, so I'm learning everything the hard way. I want this novel to be the best it can be, and a great experience for you - the reader. To that end, the editing, revising, blurb writing process has taken much longer than I had originally anticipated. The good news though, is hopefully my next novel will be a much quicker and smoother process.


I look forward to my next update and sending out some ARCs soon. 

Take care,

Kat
