So, you're interested in joining my ARC team...

WHAT DOES AN ARC TEAM DO?

ARC stands for Advanced Reader Copy.

And thank you, in advance, for your interest in joining my ARC team! 

What you Get

ARC readers get access to advanced copies of books, in order to provide reviews and feedback before the book officially launches. This usually takes the form of:

  • Book Reviews on Social Media or Blogs

  • Product Reviews on Amazon, Goodreads, or BookBub

  • Feedback 

  • Spreading the Word about Upcoming Releases

If approved, you get access to a pre-publication version* of the book for free. You also get advanced notice of upcoming releases before the general public.

 

 

*It is important to note, that the pre-publication version may not be the final version of the manuscript and is subject to change. Pre-publication versions of K.S. MANDEVILLE's books are sent digitally. 

What you Do

ARC readers are an important part of an author's pre-launch team. People like you help generate buzz that is crucial to getting the attention of not only other readers, but booksellers. In short, you help make an author's dream come true!

Generally, by joining an ARC team as a reader, you agree to:

  • Providing one or more of the following:

    • Book Reviews on Social Media or Blogs

    • Product Reviews on Amazon, Goodreads, or BookBub

    • Honest and Constructive Feedback 

    • Quotes for use in marketing materials, including but not limited to both print and digital book covers, newsletters, and social posts.

  • Not sharing, circulating, uploading, or otherwise disseminating the ARC copy.

  • Not using AI to inform any part of the materials and duties you undertake as an ARC reader.
