Dear Reader,
I hope you're doing well and reading good books! You may have noticed that we took a hiatus for a while; I had to get rid of some pesky stage-4 cancer and assimilate a new liver, but I'm cancer free now and we're ready now to get back to business -- which means bringing you two new novels to beta-read!
But first, a question:
Do you still want to be a Wild Beta Reader? If you're not, just hit Unsubscribe & we'll leave your inbox alone.
What is a Wild Beta Reader?
From time to time, our clients are interested in trading free copies of their unpublished manuscripts for honest, timely, unpaid feedback from casual readers. If you’re on our Wild Beta list, we’ll send you a special edition of our newsletter whenever a new book becomes available. If the book appeals to you, you can request a Microsoft Word or Kindle version, and you'll have three weeks to read the book and respond to our Wild Beta Questionnaire. There's no obligation to say yes to any given book, and you can unsubscribe at any time.
Here's a sample of our Wild Beta Questionnaire for fiction.
I'll be sending Beta Bait for those two new novels soon, so I hope you'll stay tuned!
All the best,
Meghan

Happy New Year, storytellers and book lovers. May 2024 bring you perfect health and brilliant physicians. Renewal. Inspiration. Courage. Immunity from shame. My heartfelt thanks go to all of you who followed me and my husband through my battle with cancer over the last two years and my liver transplant in April. My scans are clear, my labs are perfect. Your messages brought light and strength to me and my husband, and it looks like we made it. Thank you for sending your love so steadily....
