[Closed, thank you!]

Hello! If you’ve gotten here, then you’re interested in being a beta for my novel, Viridis! I’m so honored that you’re considering doing this for me.

A little about the book, before we get down to business:

After years of fighting a war she doesn’t believe in, Jade Cavvar is being awarded for her efforts. But when an assassin makes an attempt on her life, Jade is forced down a path she never dreamed she’d walk. Stolen away from her home, she is brought to the land of the enemy where she must find her reason for living and scramble to find a way to stop the war before it ends in the death of millions.

And while she battles for freedom, her best friend, Aris Sell, must grapple with Jade’s disappearance. Her paranoia forces her to scrutinize those she’s battled alongside for years, and when she unveils a secret hidden from the masses, she triggers irreversible events that could ruin the galaxy as she knows it.

Viridis is a young adult, sci-fi novel that deals with friendship, betrayal, and what it means to be a survivor. It’s current word count is 101,722, at 48 chapters.

Now, let’s go over some quick beta rules! First, I’m going to need you to complete the chapter I send you within two weeks of the date I give it to you. If you move faster then that, perfect! You will help the process go by quicker. If you cannot keep up with this time constraint, please do not send me an email. If you fall behind several times, I will thank you for everything, but will need to let you go as a beta. I really don’t want to be put in that position, so please, keep up on the reading!

Upon completion of the reading, we will communicate via whatever preferred means and you will give me your comments and I will ask you a few questions. After which, I will send you the next bit of reading! Pretty simple.

So how do you sign up? Simply fill out the form below and email me at l@hemphillhouse . com ! It is likely that I will not accept everyone who emails me, but I appreciate your interest nonetheless! And to those who I do accept: I will contact you in a few days and we will get started.
