Giveaways and Contests

Everyone who helps with the beta reading process or reads an advance copy will be entered for a giveaway. the details of which to be provided by email before you receive your Beta or ARC copies. Winners will be selected by random, one week after the book release, and will be notified by email. Where a winner turns down a gift, a new winner will be selected a few weeks later.

Some additional giveaways, such as signed copies or posters, may be announced for people who loved the book. Because it does not make sense to send signed copies to anyone who disliked the book, a separate "thank you anyway" giveaway for people to might not want a signed copy will be arranged. The details of additional giveaways may not be announced until after the book has been released.
