Review Requirements
In order for me to proof your book, you must send a non-returnable book, e-book or non-expire Smashword code if your book has already been published. Books must be written in English. EPUB or PDF files are preferred.
Because this is in addition to my 10 hour a day day job and also my book review blog Can't Put It Down, I will only be accepting books that I am truly interested in. When or if the time comes that this services takes off and I am getting a lot of requests, I am open to changing this to any genre of book that I enjoy. Please do not be offended, just understand that there are only so many hours in a day, and only a few of them can be spent reading after I am done working and I also receive daily requests for Can't Put It Down to read and review.
ARC's will be given priority to be proofed.
When I am finished and your book is published (or if your book has already been published and you would like me to read it for errors) if you would like me to also feature your book and write a review on Can't Put It Down, please let me know!
I also ask that you include my name and website in the credits when your book is published. (Jennifer Goehl at extrasetofeyes.blogspot.com)
Please note that I am not proofing for content, even though I will give my suggestions as feedback.
Why offer this service?
It's simple. As a book review blogger, most of my reads and requests are from Indie authors and most of them are self-published. I am very open and honest in my reviews. Spelling and grammar are part of the package of what makes up my review and could mean the difference in a 3 star review being a 4 or even 5 star review. This seems to be a big issue with self-published authors and something I want to help fix.
You have my personal guarantee that I will do my best to find every error and will provide you with a reference if requested.
